§ MR. HOARE (Norwich)asked the Vice President of the Committee of Council on Education, Whether any action has been taken by the Education Department with reference to the schemes proposed by the Charity Commissioners for the administration of certain Norwich Charities?
§ THE VICE PRESIDENT (Sir WILLIAM HART DYKE) (Kent, Dartford)It is proposed to suspend any action by the Education Department with reference to these schemes, in order to facilitate negotiations between the Charity Commissioners, on the one hand, and the Trustees and Local Authorities on the other, for the modification of their respective proposals for the future administration of these endowments, and to give an opportunity for the inclusion in any substituted schemes of certain loan charities, which it is now impossible to apply to their original objects, and which might with advantage be devoted to educational purposes.
