ELEMENTARY EDUCATION DEPARTMENT—NEW CODE 1873—THE MUSIC FINE.—QUESTION.

HC Deb 29 July 1873 vol 217 c1179 1179

§ MR. BROGDEN
asked the Vice President of the Committee of Council for Education, If he will suspend the operation of sub-section d of Article 32 of the New Code 1873, commonly known as the Music Fine, until there has been an opportunity for further discussion next Session?

§ MR. W. E. FORSTER,
in reply, said, that neither he nor the Committee of Council on Education had any power to suspend the operation of any Article of the Code after it had once received the approval of Parliament. He might add that the Department saw no reason to disapprove of the regulation as to music.
