§ Sir REGINALD POLE-CAREWasked whether permission to serve in the Territorials has been refused to unskilled as well as to skilled labourers in the dockyards?
§ Dr. MACNAMARAThe limit placed on the numbers of dockyard workmen who are allowed to belong to the Territorial Force applies to unskilled as well as to skilled labourers.
§ Sir R. POLE-CAREWDo I understand that unskilled labourers are not permitted to join?
§ Dr. MACNAMARAThey are permitted within a certain percentage. It would be obviously unwise to have the yards depleted in time of national emergency.
§ Sir C. KINLOCH-COOKEHow is it proposed, under present conditions, to have the yards filled with unskilled labour in case of emergency?
§ Dr. MACNAMARAWe have said that only a certain percentage of the men shall join the Territorials.
