§ Mr. Henderson Stewartasked the Minister of Labour whether any rules have been laid down to govern cases of women working in factories who desire leave in order to be at home with their husbands when on short leave from the Army, Navy or Royal Air Force; and whether permission for such leave is normally given in factories, and under what conditions?
§ Mr. BevinFactory managements have been urged to arrange, so far as reasonably possible, for women workers to be given leave of absence when their husbands are home on leave, and inquiries show that managements generally are acting reasonably in the matter.
