§ Mrs. Doris Fisherasked the Secretary of State for Employment if he will take action to abolish "Men's" and "Women's" departments at employment exchanges.
§ Mr. Dudley SmithYes. In future all new job centres will be planned to provide facilities for both men and women together. In existing local offices separate men's and women's departments will be discontinued as soon as reasonably practicable. Where compelling reasons may prevent this for the time being, the full range of vacancies will be held in both sections.
