HC Deb 13 January 1913 vol 46 c1694W
Mr. JOHN O'CONNOR

asked the Vice-President of the Department of Agriculture (Ireland) if the Department have received applications from Gaelic colleges for recognition for their summer courses for teachers of Irish; and, if so, whether such recognition has been granted?

Mr. BIRRELL

Such applications have been received, but the Department have been unable to accede to them as their Regulations did not contemplate the making of Grants to summer courses of the nature proposed.
