HC Deb 23 October 1941 vol 374 cc1919-20W
Mr. R. J. Taylor

asked the Minister of Labour whether he is aware that exception is taken to the request of men who desire to be transferred to the 80-hour groups in factories from the 50-hour groups; and whether, in the interests of production, arrangements will be made for such transfer to take place?

Mr. Bevin

I have not been able to trace the cases mentioned but if my hon. Friend will be good enough to give me fuller particulars I will make further inquiry. I may add that recent changes in hours of work at the establishment to which I understand my hon. Friend refers appear to have given rise to some misunderstanding but this has since been removed.
