HC Deb 07 November 1940 vol 365 cc1456-7W
Mr. Harvey

asked the Secretary of State for War whether the arrangements being made for educational work for the benefit of soldiers, include provision for handicraft work during the winter months, especially for men in billets?

Sir E. Grigg

Yes, Sir. The pamphlet "Education in the War-Time Army," of which I am sending my hon. Friend a copy, shows the lines upon which we are working. This alludes specifically to the needs of those whose minds work through their hands, and special funds have been allotted for the purchase of equipment.
