HC Deb 23 May 1881 vol 261 c1059
MR. HUSSEY VIVIAN

asked the Vice President of the Council, Whether he can state when the Report of the Departmental Committee on Higher and Intermediate Education in Wales will be received?

MR. MUNDELLA

Sir, I have communicated with the Commissioners on Education in Wales, and I am informed that the labour attending the collection and arrangement of the materials and statistics necessary for the preparation of the Report and the examination of the vast amount of supplementary information furnished to the Commissioners during the progress of their inquiry has proved far greater than could at first have been anticipated. The task of arranging these materials is now nearly completed, and the Commissioners hope to be able shortly to present their Report.
