HC Deb 09 July 1946 vol 425 c45W
78. Mr. Kirkwood

asked the Secretary of State for War what is the present length of training for signal personnel; and, in view of the great hardship imposed on signal personnel who have had over four years' service abroad, if he will cut down the period of training to the utmost.

Mr. Bellenger

The training time varies according to the nature of the duties on which personnel will be used. A review of training syllabuses has recently been made and reductions of one to four weeks achieved in the time spent in Corps training.
