HC Deb 13 August 1879 vol 249 c912
MR. W. M. TORRENS

asked the Chief Secretary for Ireland, Whether the Commissioners of National Education have signified their approval of an increase of salaries to teachers in Ireland according to class and not according to results; and, if not, whether their opinion will be taken by Government on the subject before any decision is come to?

THE CHANCELLOR OF THE EXCHEQUER (for Mr. J. LOWTHER)

Sir, I am not quite certain that the Commissioners of National Education have been consulted; but, if not, no doubt they will be.
