HC Deb 16 November 1944 vol 404 c2154W
Captain Graham

asked the Minister of Labour whether, in view of the incidence of unemployment in Liverpool and other parts of the U.K., he has now decided to release women of 45 years of age or over from industry or, alternatively, stop the further call-up of women of that age.

Mr. Bevin

As stated in my reply to my hon. Friend the Member for Harrow (Mr. N. Bower) on 12th October 1 have under review the position of women in the older age classes, but I would refer to the White Paper on the Re-Allocation of Manpower between Civilian Employments which is being published to-day. This contains all the information that is known at present.
