HC Deb 03 March 1955 vol 537 c2239
50. Mr. Gower

asked the Minister of Education how many teachers, qualified to teach Welsh, have taken teaching posts in England; and how many posts in Wales for teachers of Welsh are still vacant.

Sir D. Eccles

This information is not available in my Department.

Mr. Gower

Will my right hon. Friend say what steps are taken to assist teachers who are qualified to teach Welsh to obtain teaching posts in Wales?

Sir D. Eccles

I have always understood that Welsh local authorities are very active in that matter themselves.
