HC Deb 20 February 1888 vol 322 c878
MR. RICHARD (Merthyr Tydvil)

asked the First Lord of the Treasury, Whether it is the intention of the Government, in accordance with the assurance given last Session by him, to deal with the question of Intermediate Education in Wales during the present Session?

THE FIRST LORD (Mr. W. H. SMITH) (Strand, Westminster)

Her Majesty's Government have been giving attention to this important subject during the Recess; but the hon. Member is aware that the earlier part of the Session must be occupied by legislation of considerable importance to which the Government is specifically pledged. Should, however, opportunity be afforded to them at a later period, Her Majesty's Government hope to be able to ask Parliament to consider a measure dealing with intermediate education in Wales.
