HC Deb 27 March 1871 vol 205 cc661-2
MR. DIXON

asked the Chief Secretary for Ireland, Whether the Irish Board of National Education has agreed to recommend to Her Majesty's Government that the capitation allowance to Monastic and Conventual Schools shall continue to be made without reference to results, but shall be at once doubled in amount; and, if so, whether he would object to lay upon the Table of this House a Copy of the document in which that recommendation is made?

THE MARQUESS OF HARTINGTON

said, in reply, that no such recommendation had been made by the Irish Commissioners for Education. The recommendations which had been made were now under the consideration of the Government, and as soon as they should be finally decided on there would be no objection to lay them on the Table of the House.
