§ DR. LYON PLAYFAIRasked the Lord Advocate, in the event of the Education (Scotland) Bill becoming law, Whether the Treasury will be entitled, as heretofore, to pay the interest of the capital sum invested under the Act 1 and 2 Vic. c. 87, to the schoolmasters of Parliamentary schools until such time as the charge of their salaries comes upon the rates?
§ THE LORD ADVOCATE, in reply, said, he had no hesitation in answering the Question in the affirmative, and if necessary further words should be added to one of the clauses of the Bill in order to make the matter perfectly plain.
