HC Deb 01 February 1940 vol 356 c1295W
Mr. Liddall

asked the Minister of Labour whether the Government have yet arrived at any detailed plans for providing post-war work for demobilised men so that a reconstruction policy may not have to be, as in 1919, prepared at the last moment; and will he, in the meantime, arrange for this part of the demobilisation problem to be put before the House at an early date?

Mr. E. Brown

As the hon. Member will appreciate, this is a matter of general policy which concerns many Government Departments, but until it is possible to envisage more precisely what will be the nature of post-war problems, it would be premature to lay any specific proposals before the House.
