Parliament Hill Update on Unemployment and Training Programs
In a Commons session MPs discussed unemployment trends and new federal programs. The government highlighted loan approvals under the National Housing Act for university dormitories and municipal sewage treatment, plus ongoing demand for water and soil pollution projects. The Technical and Vocational Training Assistance Act is advancing, with provinces planning new training facilities from Newfoundland to British Columbia, and a 75 percent federal cost share for capital investments through March 1963. Training enrolments are rising with 385 centres offering 82 occupations and projected expansion to cover more unemployed individuals.
