HC Deb 09 May 1892 vol 4 c373
SIR J. LUBBOCK

I beg to ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether the Government intend to propose any additional grant this year to the English Colleges?

*MR. GOSCHEN

I regret that the margin of revenue over expenditure in the present year does not permit me to propose any addition to the grant for the English Colleges. I hope, however, that another year it may be possible to make an addition to the grants.

MR. JOSEPH BOLTON (Stirling)

Can the right hon. Gentleman say whether an equivalent increase will be made to the Scotch Colleges?

*MR. GOSCHEN

I do not think that the footing of the Scotch Colleges is analogous to that of the English.
