§ 61. Mr. K. Thompsonasked the Minister of Education how many courses in mines management are available in England and Wales in technical colleges maintained by local authority education departments or in universities.
§ Sir D. EcclesThere are at least 21 courses in technical colleges providing education up to under-manager standard, of which eight proceed to manager standard. There are many other courses which give exemption from parts of the statutory examinations for mine manager. In addition, seven universities provide courses leading to degrees in mining which give a large measure of exemption.
