HC Deb 07 November 1939 vol 353 c57W
Mr. Alfred Edwards

asked the Minister of Labour whether he will institute legislation to promote the employment of older women workers by offering inducements to employers to engage a fixed proportion of women over 30 years of age, according to the number of workers employed; and whether he will consider forming a roll of such employers on the lines of the King's Roll for disabled men?

Mr. E. Brown

No, Sir. I am afraid I do not regard the suggestions made by the hon. Member as practicable.
