§ 72. Mr. BUCHANANasked the Minister of Labour if he is aware of the decrease in the number of girls who are now attending training centres in Glasgow; and if he can explain the cause of this decrease?
§ Mr. BETTERTONYes, Sir; during the present year there has been a decline month by month in the number of girls attending Juvenile Unemployment Centres in Glasgow. This is, I think, fully accounted for by a decline in unemployment. There has been no alteration in the rules governing the admission of girls to the centres.
