§ 3. Mr. R. Gibsonasked the Minister of Labour how many of the 42 girls under the age of 18 transferred to industrial employment in Leicestershire in 1935 and how many of the 126 similar girls similarly transferred in 1936 were transferred from Greenock; how many of these girls from Greenock, in each of these years, were placed in the woollen industry; and what were the total sums spent on travelling expenses and on subsistence allowances for the girls so placed in each of these years?
§ The Minister of Labour (Mr. Ernest Brown)No girls have been transferred from Greenock to industrial employment in Leicestershire under the juvenile transference scheme in 1935 or 1936. The other points in the hon. Member's question, therefore, do not arise.
§ 15. Mr. Leslieasked the Minister of Labour the number of young men sent out of the county of Durham to training centres during 1935 and 1936 and, if possible, what percentage of these trainees have secured permanent employment?
