§ MR. R. H. PAGETasked the Vice President of the Council, If he will be good enough to state on what conditions, as to payment of school fees, can a board of guardians claim that the indoor pauper children of their union shall receive education in the elementary school (whether Voluntary or Board School) of the parish in which their union workhouse is situated?
§ MR. MUNDELLAThe Board of Guardians can claim the admission of indoor pauper children to any public elementary school, whether voluntary or denominational, on tendering the ordinary fee payable at the school, provided such fee does not exceed 3d. per week. The experience of the Education Department proves that it is a distinct advantage to the indoor pauper children to receive their education with other children at the ordinary elementary schools.
