"Minister's labour" joke

The newly appointed health minister of a northern state, whose knowledge of English was somewhat elementary, was on his first official visit to the largest hospital in the capital. The director of medical services took the minister around the operating theatres and general wards till they came to the women patients' section.
'This, sir, is the labour ward,' explained the director.
The minister stopped in his tracks and remarked firmly:' I will not visit this ward. Don't you know we have a labour minister in the government? I must not trespass into his domain.
