HC Deb 08 May 1930 vol 238 c1156W
Mr. DAY

asked the Minister of Labour whether it is proposed to maintain the farms at Carstairs, Brandon, and Clay-don as Government training centres for emigrants to the Dominions; and, if not, what the Government proposes to do with these centres?

Miss BONDFIELD

So far as the centres referred to by my hon. Friend may not be required for training men for employment in the Dominions, it is proposed, for the time being, to utilise them so far as may be practicable as training and transfer instructional centres at which men will receive courses of instruction to fit them for employment in this country.
