HC Deb 21 October 1943 vol 392 cc1529-30W
Mr. Butcher

asked the Minister of Labour what steps are being taken to supply recruits to replace members of the W.L.A. who leave the service by reason of health, expectant motherhood and for other reasons?

Mr. Bevin

No new recruiting can be permitted at present. Vacancies arising from any cause must therefore be filled, so far as necessary and practicable, by rearrangement of the work of existing members.
