HC Deb 08 February 1938 vol 331 c868W
Mr. White

asked the Minister of Labour whether he can state the number of ex-service men who have availed themselves of the facilities for training at the Ministry of Labour training centres at Southampton and Leeds?

Mr. Butler

I assume that the hon. Member is referring to the scheme for giving vocational training to soldiers before their return to civilian life. On the 3rd February there were in training under this scheme 81 soldiers at Leeds and 233 at Southampton.
