MR. LEWIS FRY (Bristol, N.)

asked the Vice President of the Committee of Council, Whether the Department has had under its consideration the recommendation contained in the 2nd Report of the Royal Commission on Technical Instruction (pp. 522 and 538), that the limit of amount of, and the conditions attached to, grants in aid of buildings for local Science Schools and Art Schools should be revised; and, whether the Department propose to take steps for carrying into effect the recommendations of the Commissioners on this subject?

THE VICE PRESIDENT (Sir LYON PLAYFAIR) (Leeds, S.)

The recommen- dation of the Royal Commission on Technical Instruction, in regard to building grants for local Science and Art Schools, has received my attention, and I propose to direct the attention of the Lords of the Treasury to the recommendation. It rests with the Treasury whether effect will be given to it.
