HC Deb 07 February 1861 vol 161 cc145-6
MR. ADDERLEY

asked the Vice-President of the Committee of Council on Education, When the Report of the Education Commissioners is likely to be presented to the House; and, whether the Government intend giving an early opportunity, after its presentation, for its discussion?

MR. LOWE

said, that the Committee had learned from the Commissioners that the Report would be presented in the course of this month. With regard to the second part of the hon. Gentleman's question, he need hardly observe that the Government would require time to consider a document of such importance; and therefore he could not now state what course they would ask the House to take in reference to its contents.

MR. GRANT DUFF

gave notice of his intention to move an Address for a Royal Commission, to inquire into the state of the higher School Education in England and Wales.
