§ Sir E. Graham-Littleasked the Minister of Education what is the total estimated cost for the ensuing financial year of the 124W emergency training service in respect of provision of premises, both rented and otherwise, and of fees, allowances, individual grants and other expenses incidental to the training of emergency teachers as distinct from other categories.
