§ Mr. Kellyasked the Minister of Labour whether he is aware that at the labour training centre at Chisledon, Wiltshire, the welding class now contains 30 trainees, whereas the proper number is about half the total; and whether, in the circumstances, he will take over the Army welding instructor who has just been discharged as a result of the closing of the Army vocational training centre at Aldershot?
§ Mr. E. BrownI understand that the present strength of this class is 22. When the Ministry take over the centre the strength will be gradually reduced to 15. and the existing instructor at Chisledon should be able to supervise this number without difficulty. The redundant welding instructor at Aldershot will be kept in mind for future vacancies under the training scheme.
