HC Deb 21 June 1950 vol 476 c123W
80 and 81. Mr. Perkins

asked the Secretary of State for Air (1) how many Air Training Corps cadets are receiving flying training at flying clubs in this country;

(2) how much money has been paid to flying clubs in this country since 1st April, 1950, under the scheme for the training of Air Training Corps cadets.

Mr. A. Henderson

As yet no cadets have commenced training under the flying scholarships scheme and no payments have been made to the flying clubs. The first batch of cadets for training have, however, been selected and contracts with clubs are about to be concluded. I hope that actual training under this scheme will commence at the beginning of next month.
