§ 1. Mr. MANDERasked the Minister of Labour if he will state what steps are being taken, in view of the coming holiday season, to enable girls who are sent by Employment Exchanges for work at the seaside resorts to get into touch, in case of need, with persons at those resorts capable of giving them advice and inquiring into their circumstances and complaints?
§ The MINISTER of LABOUR (Sir Henry Betterton)In accordance with established practice, each of these girls is given the names and addresses of members of social organisations or of members of the women's sub-committee of the local employment committee who are available for consultation and help outside Exchange hours. The hon. Member will find some further particulars in an article published in the April issue of the Ministry of Labour Gazette, page 127.
§ Mr. MANDERWill my right hon. Friend cause further inquiries to be made as to the conditions in North Wales, as there were many complaints concerning girls sent there last year?
§ Sir H. BETTERTONIf my hon. Friend will give me particulars of any complaints I will look into them.
