HC Deb 15 October 1969 vol 788 c98W
Commander Pursey

asked the Secretary of State for Employment and Productivity what Government resettlement courses are available for naval electrical mechanics injured in Service football matches and prematurely discharged from the Royal Navy, in order to make use of their years of special naval training and experience in civilian employment.

Mr. Dell

Men discharged from the Royal Navy on health grounds who need resettlement training may be admitted to any of the courses provided under the Government's Vocational Training Scheme for which they are suitable. The training may be given at a Government training centre, at a technical or commercial college, in an employer's establishment, or, in the case of the severely disabled, at a residential training centre.
