HC Deb 14 April 1937 vol 322 c1012
84. Miss Cazalet

asked the Minister of Labour whether, in view of the difficulty in obtaining suitable recruits for the domestic training centres, he will consider filling vacancies with girls from other than the Special Areas?

Mr. E. Brown

Eligibility for the residential domestic training centres is not limited to girls coming from the Special Areas, but is open to suitable candidates from any part of the country. There are seven of these centres, with a capacity of 295 places. About 130 of these places are at present unfilled.
