HC Deb 01 February 1940 vol 356 cc1295-6W
Mr. Viant

asked the Minister of Labour whether he can now permit the whole of the committees connected with the Employment Exchanges to resume their normal procedure as prior to September, 1939?

Mr. E. Brown

The existing arrangement is that the committees are to meet if some special business arises or if in the chairman's opinion an appreciable number of members desire a meeting. This is, I think, as near an approach to normality as present circumstances would justify.
