Italian Prisoners Of War (Employment)

44.

Wing-Commander Hulbert
asked the Secretary of State for War whether he will now give further consideration to the employment of Italian prisoners of war in industry?

Mr. Tomlinson
I have been asked to reply. As stated in the reply to the hon. and gallant Member for Wycombe (Sir A. Knox) on 14th October, this matter is under consideration.

Wing-Commander Hulbert
Can the hon. Gentleman say when decisions will be reached?

Mr. Tomlinson
No, Sir.

Commander Locker-Lampson
Will the hon. Gentleman look into the question of whether or not we are going to employ German prisoners?
