§ MR. CALDWELLI beg to ask the Lord Advocate whether the old Academy at Fortrose, which it is proposed to re build on another site, is to be under the management of the School Board of Rosemarkie as a higher public school; and whether, by the existing law, School Boards are entitled to build higher public schools at the expense of the ratepayers?
§ MR. J. P. B. ROBERTSONNo resolution has been passed to raise the Fort-rose Academy to the status of a Higher Class Public School, and we are not aware that there is any intention of altering the present status. In view of this, the point raised in the second part of the hon. Member's question does not arise.
