HC Deb 18 June 1942 vol 380 cc1654-5
12. Captain Gammans

asked the Home Secretary whether he is yet in a position to make a comprehensive statement on the part-time employment, on munition and other war work, of paid Civil Defence workers in their on-duty and off-duty periods?

21. Captain Peter Macdonald

asked the Home Secretary whether he is yet in a position to make any statement about the better utilisation of the spare time available to Civil Defence workers; and to what extent it has been possible to make arrangements for them to do part-time munition work?

Mr. H. Morrison

No, Sir. On 14th April last I laid down general lines of policy in a circular, of which I am sending my hon. and gallant Friends a copy, and the time has not yet come to make any comprehensive progress report.
