HC Deb 10 June 1892 vol 5 c818

76."That a sum, not exceeding £3,796,213, be granted to Her Majesty, to complete the sum necessary to defray the Charge which will come in course of payment during the year ending on the 31st day of March, 1893, for Public Education in England and Wales, including Expenses of the Education Office in London.

Motion made, and Question proposed, "That this House doth agree with the Committee in the said Resolution."

MR. MORTON

Is this Vote to be postponed, or how is the Vice President of the Council to make his promised statement upon educational matters?

(1.35.) THE VICE PRESIDENT OF THE COUNCIL (Sir WILLIAM HART DYKE,) Kent, Dartford

I am quite prepared to carry out my promise given last night. Many opportunities will be offered, and I will consult with the First Lord of the Treasury as to the statement being made on one of the stages of the Appropriation Bill or on some other occasion. Due notice will be given, and I think it will be a better opportunity than on the Report of Supply.

MR. MORTON

And opportunity will be given for discussion?

SIR W. HART DYKE

Certainly: there will be no difficulty about that.

DR. TANNER

Can the right hon. Gentleman now fix the date? Will it be on the Appropriation Bill, or would it not be better to settle a date?

SIR W. HART DYKE

On Monday or Tuesday we may be able to determine when.

DR. TANNER

Say Tuesday.

Question put, and agreed to.

Resolution agreed to.

Resolutions 77 to 85 agreed to.
