Sir R. Glyn

asked the Minister of Labour whether, in consultation with the Government of Northern Ireland, he is able to employ skilled workers, now unemployed in Northern Ireland, for work in essential war factories in this country?

Mr. Bevin

Yes, Sir. There are standing arrangements between my Department and the Ministry of Labour for Northern Ireland under which skilled workers who become unemployed in Northern Ireland and who are available for transfer are transferred to suitable work in the munitions industries in this country.
