HC Deb 26 October 1945 vol 414 c2469W
Sir E. Graham-Little

asked the Minister of Labour, in connection with speeding up demobilisation, will he consider the case of young women whose university courses were interrupted by National Service, an example of which has been furnished him of an honours graduate of London University serving in the Ministry of Aircraft Production since 1941, who wishes to return for a further year to qualify as a librarian and has been accepted by the university but whose release has been opposed by his Ministry.

Mr. Ness Edwards

Women employed in work of national importance may resume university courses provided that they can secure their release from their employment. In the particular case referred to, I understand that release has now been granted.
