HC Deb 21 December 1964 vol 704 cc176-7W
Mr. Ellis Smith

asked the Minister of Labour if he will take action, in consultation with the National Society of Pottery Workers, the manufacturers and others, to fill all vacancies arising from the export drive, including the employment of students.

Mr. Marsh

Our employment exchanges in North Staffordshire are in close touch with the pottery industry and are doing all they can to fill current vacancies. There are few vacancies suitable for students. I understand that the need is for skilled workers and suitable women to train.
