§ MR. T. M. HEALY (Longford, N.)asked the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, If the Board of Irish National Education have for more than 12 months placed the Lismacaral (County Derry) School outside the Board; if the attendance is as great as in places of a similar kind; if the present teacher has received nothing from the Board for the last 12 months; if the average attendance has been equal to that of the period when the school was under the Board; if the district is exclusively Protestant and Presbyterian; and, if the Government will agree to have the school placed under the Board once more?
§ THE PARLIAMENTARY UNDER SECRETARY (Colonel KING-HARMAN) (Kent, Isle of Thanet)(who replied) said, the National Education Commissioners reported in May, 1885, that the 1602 Lismacaral School was struck off the roll of National schools because the average attendance had been below the required minimum. The school having been reopened under a competent teacher, and the average attendance having become sufficient, the Commissioners revived the grant.
