§ 71. Mr. W. GRAHAMasked the Minister of Health whether his attention has recently been drawn to the claims of ex-service men for appointment as sanitary inspectors under local authorities and other bodies; whether he is prepared directly, or in co-operation with the Ministry of Labour, to prepare a list of the limited number of men who are discharged or demobilised soldiers, have been trained at colleges or other institutions at the expense of the Ministry of Labour, and have passed the examination of the Royal Sanitary Institute; and whether, if such a comparatively small list were prepared, he would be willing to circulate it among the local authorities of the country, in order to secure fully the preference for ex-service men, which is the policy of the Government in such matters?
§ Dr. ADDISONI have this matter before me at the present time, and am conferring with the Ministry of Labour in regard to it.
