6. Provide permanent homes and sanatoria for those who are more seriously injured, and find suitable light employment for those who can undertake it. 7. Arrange the best places and provide proper training for discharged soldiers and sailors (and others) who may be willing to settle on the land. 8. Consider how to restore the discharged men to their former places or accustomed work, and how to meet the needs of the temporary workers who will be displaced. 9. Curtail the vast expenditure on the departments organised for War work, reducing the staffs and finding other work for those who must be discharged. Dispense altogether with some of the new Ministries. The question of employment for women after the War will be most urgent. 10. Organise and correlate the various departments so as to secure more efficiency, and so assign and arrange the work of each as to avoid circumlocution, friction and waste. 11. Reconstitute the Cabinet on clearer lines, and let competence for the work of each department, instead of recognition of party services, be the guide in appointing the Minister responsible for each. 12. Reform the procedure of the House of Commons to check verbosity and facilitate business.[10] Delegate certain powers and duties. |
