§ 112. Mr. Mossasked the Minister of Labour how many school leavers entered the labour market at Christmas 1958: how many of these have been placed in employment; how many secured suitable apprenticeships; how many returned to school; and how many remain unemployed.
§ Mr. WoodNo statistics are kept of boys and girls who return to school, and I regret that the other figures asked for are not yet available. The placing of Christmas leavers in employment is proceeding satisfactorily though it is taking longer than in recent years.
