HC Deb 15 February 1945 vol 408 cc408-9W
Mr. Riley

asked the Minister of Labour whether he can state approximately the percentage of boys from privately controlled public schools and publicly maintained secondary schools, respectively, who have been directed to coalmining.

Mr. Bevin

Details of the educational establishment which a man attended are not recorded on his National Service documents and accordingly, I regret I cannot supply the required information.
