HC Deb 26 November 1888 vol 331 c150
MR. T. E. ELLIS (Merionethshire)

asked the Vice President of the Committee of Council on Education, Whether the recommendation unanimously made by all the Members of the Royal Commission on Education, that the State-aided University Colleges of Aberyst-with, Cardiff, and Bangor, should be utilized for the training of teachers, can be adopted at an early date; and whether he will enter into communication with the Councils of the three Colleges as to their readiness to form educational faculties, and make other arrangements necessary for the effective carrying out of the recommendation of the Commissioners?

THE VICE PRESIDENT (Sir WILLIAM HART DYKE) (Kent, Dartford)

The recommendations of the Royal Commission on this head are under consideration; and though disposed to view with favour some experiment in the direction indicated, there are many difficulties, financial and otherwise, that have to be approached, and the Department have not yet had time to deal with them.
