HC Deb 27 March 1958 vol 585 c61W
59. Mr. Moss

asked the Minister of Education to what extent he proposes to encourage industry to admit additional apprentices over the next few years in order, eventually, to release trained personnel to be teachers in technical colleges.

Sir E. Boyle

If the recommendations of the Carr Committee are carried out, this should in the long run help to increase the number of people available for teaching in technical colleges, but my right hon. Friend doubts if there is any occasion for him to use this as an argument for industry to increase its intake of apprentices in view of the many more urgent reasons justifying such a policy.
