HC Deb 27 February 1918 vol 103 c1393W
Major DAVIES

asked the Minister of Munitions how many applications for employment by discharged soldiers have been received by the Penrhyndendraeth Explosives Factory; and how many of these are now being actually employed?

Mr. KELLAWAY

The first part of this question cannot be answered, since the factory keeps no record of men who have applied and not been taken on. A recent report indicated that twenty discharged soldiers were then employed (29th January, 1918).
