HC Deb 04 November 1965 vol 718 cc218-9W
Mrs. Shirley Williams

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science how many Commonwealth immigrants have been granted vouchers to teach since the passing of the Commonwealth Immigrants Act, 1962; and how many of these are at present holding teaching appointments with local education authorities, or at universities and colleges of advanced technology.

Mr. Denis Howell

My right hon. Friend the Minister of Labour tells me that 6,488 vouchers had been issued by the end of October, of which 157 were in Category A and 6,331 in Category B. The information asked for in the second part of the Question is not available.
