HC Deb 23 March 1948 vol 448 cc308-9W
39. Mr. Marples

asked the Minister of Labour how many applicants are registered with the Liverpool Appointments Bureau; and how many applicants have been placed in suitable positions during the last 12 months.

Mr. Ness Edwards

Following is the answer:

persons situated in the North-East Lancashire area.

Mr. Ness Edwards

No, not at present. It is hoped to open two non-residential industrial rehabilitation centres this year in Lancashire at Manchester (Denton) and Liverpool (Aintree) and the question of extending the service to other parts of the Region will be reviewed in the light of experience. Disabled men in North-East Lancashire in need of a course of industrial rehabilitation can be admitted to the residential industrial rehabilitation centre at Egham, Surrey.
