§ MR. MUNDELLAI beg to ask the First Lord of the Treasury whether, in consideration of the great interest which is felt throughout the country as to the Government measure relating to assisted education, he will arrange for the introduction of the Bill before the Adjournment for the Christmas holidays, so as to afford time for its consideration by the country?
§ MR. W. H. SMITHThe Government are not prepared to introduce the measure relating to assisted education before Christmas.
§ MR. MUNDELLAWill the right hon. Gentleman give ample time, so that the intense interest taken in the subject by all sections of the community may be satisfied?
§ MR. W. H. SMITHUndoubtedly it is a question upon which ample time should be afforded to the House and the country to consider the proposals of the Government before they are sanctioned.
