HC Deb 07 August 1893 vol 15 c1427
MR. STANLEY LEIGHTON

I beg to ask the Vice President of the Committee of Council on Education if he can inform the House of the number of schools which have received a warning under Article 86 of the Code since he has been Vice President, distinguishing between the voluntary and the rate-supported schools?

MR. ACLAND

The number of schools warned under Article 86 is stated in the Annual Report for each year. I do not think it is necessary to give a partial Return at this moment. The Return next issued in the ordinary course up to August 31 next will practically cover the first 12 months of the present administration. If the hon. Member wishes for it as a special Return, and will move for it any day after this month, I will see that it is laid on the Table.
