HC Deb 11 April 1921 vol 140 cc743-4
60. Sir JAMES CORY

asked the Minister of Health whether, while Englishwomen are being dismissed from his Department under the substitution schemes, certain foreign women are being retained?

Sir A. MOND

The dismissal or retention of temporary women in the Ministry of Health is now being decided on reports by the Substitution Committee on the individual cases. There are three temporary clerks, wholly or partly of foreign origin, whose temporary retention is under consideration by the Committee. The services of all will be dispensed with in due course, as they are ineligible under a Government decision for retention as permanent civil servants.
