§ Mr. HASLAMasked the Minister of Munitions whether in any factories under his control women have the option of working overtime; and, if so, what limit is made with regard to the amount of such overtime?
§ Dr. ADDISONWomen in controlled establishments, like other workpeople there, may, under the rules made by the Minister of Munitions under Section 4 (5) of the Munitions of War Act, be required to work a reasonable amount of overtime. The hours that can be worked in the case of women are, of course, limited by the Factory Acts, referred to in the answer just given to a previous question by my hon. Friend.
