HC Deb 03 April 1940 vol 359 c172W
Mr. Henderson Stewart

asked the Minister of Food whether he is aware of the serious position arising throughout the country owing to the depletion of the staffs of the pork and bacon trades; and whether, in order to secure the maximum production of pork and bacon, he will consider the reducing the reserved age of employés in such trades to 25 years, instead of 30 years as at present?

Mr. W. S. Morrison

I am in communication with my right hon. Friend the Minister of Labour and National Service in regard to this Question.
