HC Deb 27 May 1919 vol 116 cc1027-8
84. Mr. RENDALL

asked the Undersecretary to the Air Ministry whether he is aware that many girls and women who volunteered for work at the Yate (Glos.) aerodrome have been recently discharged and their places taken by other women; whether this action is locally regarded as unjust and results in the turned-off women receiving out-of-work donation; whether, as the result of newspaper correspondence, no women received fresh notices on Friday, 16th May, but many girls left that week owing to previous notices and eight or nine fresh ones were taken on; and will he say what justification there is for this conducts?

Major-General SEELY

I have not yet had time to obtain full information on this matter, and should be obliged if my hon. Friend would postpone his question till Thursday.
