§ 47. Captain S. GWYNNasked the Prime Minister whether, in view of the difficulty which, despite the existence of Employment Exchanges, discharged soldiers experience in finding employment in Ireland, either from public Departments or private employers, he will cause a special Government bureau to be instituted which shall keep a register of all discharged officers and other ranks seeking employment in Ireland and endeavour to find suitable positions for these applicants?
§ The PARLIAMENTARY SECRETARY to the MINISTRY of LABOUR (Mr. Bridgeman)I have been asked to reply to this question. The Government are anxious to do all they can to assist discharged soldiers in finding employment and the suggestion made in the question will receive careful consideration.
