§ Sir P. SASSOONNo recent representations on the case have been received in the Air Ministry, and I have no statement to make.
§ Mr. WILLIAMSCan my right hon. Friend say, having regard to the statement in the Prime Minister's letter that there was no charge against this lady's character or efficiency, why she was dismissed in circumstances which prevent her re-engagement in the public service?
