Mr. Harvey

asked the Secretary of State for War whether, in view of the need for encouraging continued education amongst militiamen in training, opportunities will be afforded to make use of the services of trained teachers and university graduates who will be available?

Mr. Hore-Belisha

Yes, Sir.

Mr. Harvey

asked the Secretary of State for War whether he will be able shortly to issue a statement setting forth the arrangements which are to be made to provide opportunities of continued education to militiamen during their period of service?

Mr. Hore-Belisha

This matter is under consideration in consultation with the Board of Education, and it is hoped that the arrangements will be completed very shortly.
