Mr. Hewlettasked the Minister of Pensions whether, when members of the Fighting Forces are discharged from his care as no longer capable of service, they are put in touch with any organisation which may train them for post-war life; and whether he will adopt such an organised policy, carried out progressively, to simplify replacement in civil life after the war?
