HC Deb 19 March 1928 vol 215 c16
50. Mr. R. MORRISON

asked the Minister of Labour how many chairmen of the new Courts of Referees have been appointed; and whether only applicants with legal training are being considered?

Sir A. STEEL-MAITLAND

No new appointments have yet been made. In general, legal qualifications are regarded as necessary but this is not an absolute rule.

Mr. KELLY

May I ask if any of the chairmen are other than those who have had legal training?

Sir A. STEEL-MAITLAND

Yes.
