HC Deb 12 March 1942 vol 378 c1211W
Mr. Mainwaring

asked the Minister of Labour what special measures are being taken to place in suitable employment men rendered incapable of following their normal employment, for example, mining, and thus make the best use of this still valuable labour force?

Mr. Bevin

A scheme was introduced last year to assist persons who are prevented by injury from returning to their normal employment to get other suitable employment, either direct or through a course of vocational training. I am sending my hon. Friend a copy of a leaflet which describes this scheme.
