Provision Of Recreation For Immigrants
With the object of assisting immigrants into the recreative life of the community, plans have been made to ensure full co-operation between physical welfare officers of the Department of Internal Affairs and district immigration welfare committees throughout New Zealand. Representatives of the Labour and Employment Departments and the physical welfare and recreation branch of the Department of Internal Affairs met recently to discuss plans, said Mr. Parry today. The Minister said the physical welfare officers would make sure that immigrants were fully informed of the wealth of opportunities available for recreation, and that any new settler expressing a preference for a particular sport would be furnished with full details regarding relevant clubs and associations.
