§ Mr. DILLONasked through what agency it is proposed to work the National Service Act in Ireland?
§ Mr. DUKEI have had several consultations on this subject with the Director-General of National Service. As the result it is proposed to appoint a Director of National Service for Ireland who may be put in a position to act with the advice of a consultative board drawn from the four provinces and through the agency of county and district committees, and in cooperation with the various existing central and local authorities in Ireland. By this means it is hoped to safeguard the immediate interests of local industry and to make the best use of any labour which may be found available for special work in Great Britain.
