During the proceedings of the Public Accounts Committee on 26th July, 1956, I was asked what was the average annual issue of tickets over a number of years to students of the Nautical College, with particular reference to tickets for qualified skippers of fishing boats.


I have ascertained from the Department of Industry and Commerce that the number of tickets (first mate; 2nd mate; Master Home Trade; Master Foreign Trade; Extra Master) issued in the past four years was


30
