§ 31. Mr. HAYDAYasked the Minister of Labour whether he is aware of a resolution passed by the Shepherd's Bush Local Employment Committee regarding the delay in dealing with the training of disabled men; whether he is aware that since the 1st of August last the Shepherd's Bush Committee have submitted 171 candidates for training, and that up to date only two of this number have commenced; and whether action will be taken to remove the cause of this delay?
§ Sir R. HORNEI am aware of the resolution in question, and the facts appear to be as stated. The cause of the delay is the insufficiency of training accommodation. Every effort has been, and is being, made to increase as rapidly as possible the facilities available for training disabled men.
