HC Deb 21 September 1939 vol 351 c1033
1. Mr. Parker

asked the Minister of Labour whether he is aware that all women employed at the Romford London and North Eastern Railway factory to fill sandbags are shut out from a day's work if they arrive one minute or more late; and whether, as such regulations are unreasonable in wartime conditions, he will approach the company on the matter?

The Minister of Labour (Mr. Ernest Brown)

I am making inquiries into this allegation and will communicate with the hon. Member.
