HC Deb 12 March 1942 vol 378 c1212W
Miss Cazalet

asked the Minister of Labour whether, under the new Defence Regulation 84AA, men and women will receive equal pay for their work and equal compensation for any injuries they may incur?

Mr. Bevin

The regulation prescribes that the rate of remuneration for services rendered in pursuance of directions shall not be lower than that generally paid for comparable services in the district. The regulation does not deal with the question of compensation.
