§ Captain Kerbyasked the Minister of Labour if he is aware that his Department sent trainees from the Park Royal Government Training Centre for employment as aircraft fitters by the Air Ministry in 1938; and when this practice commenced.
§ Mr. CarrNo records survive which show when the first placings were made of men trained before the last war at the Park Royal Government Training Centre for subsequent employment as aircraft fitters by the Air Ministry, but it is within the recollection of some of my officers that a few trainees went to Air Ministry employment before the large-scale training scheme for Air Ministry employment began early in 1939.
