16 year old James Pickering (left) has not come to register for his adult Identity Card like the rest of the teenagers visible in the photograph: he has volunteered to join the Merchant Navy and has called at the Labour Exchange for final permission to leave his present job. According to the original caption, he has already produced a letter signed by his mother allowing him to join up, and has passed a medical. The female Ministry of Labour officials are checking through his paperwork.
The UK Ministry of Information was established in 1939, at the outbreak of World War II. It was responsible for coordinating and controlling all government information and propaganda, both within the UK and abroad. The Ministry of Information was created to help the government communicate with the public and to ensure that important information was disseminated effectively. It was also responsible for managing the media and censoring certain types of information that might be harmful to morale or national security. The Ministry of Information played a crucial role in shaping public opinion during the war, and it worked closely with other government departments to develop and implement a range of propaganda campaigns. The Ministry of Information was dissolved in 1946, following the end of World War II.
