HC Deb 06 August 1942 vol 382 c1161
8. Sir Leonard Lyle

asked the Minister of Labour how many girls working in the football pool offices are between 20 and 30 years of age; and how many have been withdrawn from these offices to do essential war work?

Mr. Bevin

Precise figures are not available, but with very few exceptions all women between the ages of 20 and 30 have already been withdrawn from employment connected with football pools.
