HC Deb 21 April 1967 vol 745 cc188-9W
Mr. Derek Page

asked the Minister of Labour what measures he proposes to take to assist in redeployment of workers in rural areas where demand for agricultural workers is declining.

Mr. Fernyhough

Many workers who have left agriculture in recent years have done so voluntarily. Government measures to strengthen training facilities, the employment service, and financial provision for redundancy will assist redeployment in appropriate cases.
