§ 48. Lieut.-Colonel Sir Thomas Mooreasked the Prime Minister whether he will now give instructions for the anomalous position of the W.L.A. to be rectified, so that they may be treated in the same way as the other women's services.
§ The Prime MinisterThere is no doubt that any attempt to introduce absolute uniformity of treatment between the Women's Land Army and the Women's Auxiliary Services would create more anomalies than it would remove. We cannot, therefore, accept the principle suggested by my hon. and gallant Friend.
