HC Deb 19 February 1946 vol 419 c205W
Mr. Boothby

asked the Minister of Labour whether he will make a statement with regard to the demobilisation of boys called up for work in coalmines; and whether it is proposed to release any of them under the Class B scheme.

Mr. Isaacs

With regard to the first part of the Question I would refer the hon. Member to the statement I made on 29th November, 1945, in reply to my hon. Friend the Member for North-East Derby (Mr. H. White). In reply to the second part of the Question there is no scheme of special release from the mines comparable to the Class B scheme of release from the Forces.
