9. Sir L. Lyle

asked the Minister of Labour the number of conscientious objectors who have been directed into the mines and who have gone there?

Mr. Bevin

I would refer my hon. Friend to the answer that I gave on 23rd September to the hon. and gallant Member for Cambridge (Lieut.-Commander Tufnell).

Mr. McGovern

Could the Minister state how many coalowners have been so directed and have gone there?
