HC Deb 10 February 1876 vol 227 cc134-5
MR. WADDY

asked the Vice President of the Committee of Council on Education, When the scheme for the management of St. John's Hospital and other Charities and Endowments in the city of Exeter, and certain other Charities and Endowments, which was laid upon the Table of the House in August 1875, was approved by the Committee of Council on Education; and, whether, before approval by the Committee of Council on Education, the scheme submitted by the Endowed Schools Commissioners was remitted to them by the Committee of Council on Education; and, if so remitted, if he would state to the House on what date; and whether he will lay upon the Table of the House the Declaration accompanying such remission?

VISCOUNT SANDON

Sir, the scheme was approved by the Committee of Council on the 20th of March, 1875. The scheme was remitted on the 15th of March, 1875, to the Charity Commissioners before approval by the Committee of Council. If the hon. and learned Member will favour me by calling at the Privy Council Office, I shall be happy to show him the Paper to which he alludes; and if he should then think that it is of any public interest, I will at once lay it upon the Table of the House.
