Paragraph 4
Where—
in pursuance of any such order the applicant’s former employer makes employment available to the applicant on the date specified in the order, but
the applicant is prevented from taking it by sickness or other reasonable cause,the former employer is under the like obligation as he would have been under if the employment had been made available in pursuance of the obligation imposed by section 1.
Where the date specified in the order as the date on which employment is to be made available is more than six months from the end of the applicant’s whole-time service, so much of section 1 as provides that in no case shall the former employer be under an obligation to take the applicant into his employment after six months after the end of the applicant’s whole-time service shall have effect as if for the reference to the end of the applicant’s whole-time service there were substituted a reference to the date so specified.
