§ Mr. A. Edwardsasked the Minister of Labour if he is aware that grade C men who, through no fault of their own, were the last to be called into the Forces will be at a disadvantage in the first-in-firstout-plan; and what steps does he propose to take in this matter.
§ Mr. TomlinsonI am not clear to what class of men my hon, Friend is referring. Category C is an Army category and has no relation to calling up. In any case, however, the suggestion that the normal standard of medical fitness required for the Forces has recently been lowered is incorrect.
