HC Deb 28 February 1966 vol 725 c186W
65 and 66. Mr. Woodhouse

asked the Minister of Health (1) whether he will seek to make a grant in aid to the Handcrafts Advisory Association for the purpose of training teachers of the disabled;

(2) whether he will initiate a system of recognised training for handcraft teachers of the disabled.

Mr. Loughlin

My right hon. Friend is not yet satisfied that the functions of this type of staff are sufficiently well defined to justify formal training arrangements or the making of a grant for the purpose.
