HC Deb 07 August 1947 vol 441 cc1642-3
51. Commander Noble

asked the Minister of Labour what instructions have been issued to local employment exchanges in regard to finding posts for those who have been without work for a month.

Mr. Isaacs

I would refer the hon. and gallant Member to the answer that I gave to him on 29th July. The general principles that I quoted in that answer are applicable both to men and to women and are designed to limit unemployment to the shortest possible period.
