(a) he shall be deemed to be a man of the Army Reserve or the Air Force Reserve, as the case may be, until discharged ;

(b) he may claim his discharge at any time, and if he does so the claim shall be submitted as soon as may be to the Defence Council, who shall cause him to be discharged with all convenient speed.
