asked the Minister of Health whether the Government have in mind any plans for the evacuation of priority classes, such as children of pre-school age, other than schoolchildren, in the event of serious air raids?

As regards children of pre-school age, I would refer the hon. Member to the reply which I gave him on 21st February. As regards expectant mothers, arrangements already exist in London and elsewhere for the evacuation from time to time of those expectant mothers who desire it. I am arranging with the local authorities for the expansion of these facilities to meet the situation if bombing should occur.
