HC Deb 21 July 1890 vol 347 c357
MR. LEAMY (Sligo, S.)

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland whether, in view of the fact that at the last results examination, John Henry M'Dermot, who has been recommended by Canon Stenson for the position of monitor to the Bunamadden Boys' School, was promoted by the Inspector from the first stage of sixth class to the second stage of sixth class, the highest class in the National Schools, and of the difficulty of one person teaching efficiently a large number of boys, the Commissioners will re-consider their decision and comply with the request of Canon Stenson, and appoint the monitor he wishes?

MR. A. J. BALFOUR

The Commissioners of National Education report that, for the reasons stated in reply to the previous question on this subject put by the hon. Member, they cannot sanction the proposed appointment.
