§ 43. Mr. Beswickasked the Minister of Labour whether, in view of the overriding need to achieve the most effective deployment of our scientific manpower, he will now reconsider his decision to call up engineering graduates of a recognised engineering institution.
§ Mr. Iain MacleodThe present arrangements for the indefinite deferment of engineers and scientists for certain designated work are limited, and cover, with very few exceptions, only men with university degrees. I cannot see my way to extending this scheme in the way the hon. Member suggests.
