HC Deb 18 November 1952 vol 507 c1554
1. Mr. Swingler

asked the Minister of Labour if he will publish the list of occupational and employment categories which he has notified to the War Department so that Z reservists in these categories may be excluded from recall for training.

The Minister of Labour and National Service (Sir Walter Monckton)

No, Sir. I do not think it would serve any useful purpose to publish these details now.

Mr. Swingler

Will the Minister be prepared to give an estimate of the numbers who are exempted by this secret schedule of reserved occupations which is being operated?

Sir W. Monckton

If the hon. Member puts down a Question I will look into that.
