HC Deb 20 March 1945 vol 409 cc657-8W
Miss Ward

asked the Minister of Labour whether he can state his policy with regard to the release of suitable British personnel to assist the various organisations concerned with the rehabilitation of liberated countries.

Mr. Tomlinson

My right hon. Friend is very sensible of the importance of this matter and of the desirability, from every point of view, of facilitating the provision of assistance in the rehabilitation of the liberated countries. He is therefore making every effort to assist the Associations concerned, whose needs are well known to our Department, by securing the release of suitable men and women provided that these are not engaged on vital war work.
