§ Miss Colmanasked the Minister of Labour whether, in view of the shortage of female labour in the manufacture of herring nets and trawls, he will consider taking steps to bring to the notice of employers the possibility of employing disabled men.
§ Mr. IsaacsEvery opportunity is taken of drawing the attention of employers, in areas where there is a shortage of female 267W labour, to the possibility of engaging suitable disabled men for work previously undertaken by women. I am obliged to my hon. Friend for her suggestion and will see that it is followed up.
