§ 18. Mr. BAKERasked the Minister of Labour whether his attention has been called to the case of Mr. Albert Oldland, of 41, Gerrish Avenue, Redfield, Bristol, who lost his toes due to frost bite during the War, and who is in receipt of a 40 per cent. pension; whether he is aware that as a consequence Mr. Oldland can only undertake light work and has been unemployed, with the exception of a few days, for more than a year; and whether, in the circumstances, it is possible to offer Mr. Oldland a period of training in a light occupation?
§ The MINISTER of LABOUR (Mr. Shaw)I would refer the hon. Member to the answer which I gave him on 2nd April regarding this case, of which I am sending him a copy.
