HC Deb 08 May 1890 vol 344 c451
MR. LLEWELLYN (Somerset, N.)

I beg to ask the Vice President of the Committee of Council on Education whether Her Majesty's Government are prepared to give facilities for the passing of the Non-Pauper School Fees Bill, or whether, considering their recent declarations with regard to assisted education, they are willing to give an assurance that some change in the present system of paying these fees shall be made at an early date?

* THE VICE PRESIDENT OF THE COUNCIL (Sir W. HART DYKE,) Kent, Dartford

Her Majesty's Government arc in complete sympathy with the objects of the Bill to which my hon. Friend refers; but looking to the fact that any measure of assisted education must include all such cases as would come within the scope of his Bill, I hope that my hon. Friend will be satisfied with the knowledge that the Government are pledged to deal with the whole subject next year.
