§ MR. M'LAREN (Cheshire, Crewe)asked the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, How many dairy schools there are in Ireland, and in what way they are supported; whether there is one in Minister which gets a grant of £500 a-year; and, if so, from what source does it get this grant; and, whether there are any other grants 1719 given to any agricultural or dairy schools in Ireland?
THE PARLIAMENTARY UNDER SECRETARY (Colonel KING-HARMAN)(who replied) (Kent, Isle of Thanet)said: The only dairy schools in Ireland in receipt of a Government grant are the Albert Agricultural Training Department at Glasnevin and the Munster Agricultural and Dairy School. Provision for these is made in the annual Estimate for Public Education (Ireland), to which I beg to refer the hon. Member for the further information he desires. It is proposed to give a sum of £2,000 out of the £50,000 special grant to the Munster School. This, however, has not yet been voted.
