Expansion Mr Hanan spoke of this year's major expansion of the trade training schemes operated by the Department of Maori and Islands Affairs. As well as the new courses in Christchurch, the opening of a new Technical Institute at Hamilton enabled the Department to start another course in carpentry. Twelve courses in eight apprenticeship trades are now running at four centres, with an annual intake of more than 200 boys. Since 1959, when the first course in carpentry was started at Auckland, 1,051 boys have begun training. So far, 699 have finished training in the schemes, of whom 295 have completed their apprenticeships.
