HC Deb 07 July 1947 vol 439 c203W
107. Sir J. Mellor

asked the Secretary of State for Air if he will give an assurance that he will continue to encourage the holding of A.T.C. camps in July, so as to reduce the strain on R.A.F. stations in August.

Mr. P. Noel-Baker

The camps for A.T.C. cadets at R.A.F. stations are open from the beginning of April to the end of September. Efforts are made to spread the attendances as evenly as possible; in particular, school units are encouraged to go to camp in the Easter holidays rather than during the summer holidays.
