HC Deb 20 April 1921 vol 140 c1854
21. Brigadier-General COLVIN

asked the Minister of Labour if it is intended to close down the Appointments Department; how it is proposed to continue the training of those ex-service men who are now undergoing a course; and what Department will be responsible for their proper supervision and administration?

Dr. MACNAMARA

I cannot say more at the present time than that I am giving close attention to the question of the future of the Appointments Department of the Ministry of Labour. Whatever decision is reached, my hon. and gallant Friend may rest assured that adequate provision will be maintained for safeguarding the interests of those undergoing training.
