§ MR. SEXTON (Kerry, N.)On behalf of the hon. Member for South Galway, I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland whether he is aware that technical classes associated with the Department of Science and Art, Kensington, have been established in the Convent Schools, Gort County Galway; that the Board of Guardians made a grant of 1d. in the £1 in support of these classes; that the Local Government Board has withheld its sanction to such a grant; whether a similar grant has been voted by the Galway Union, although the classes have not been amalgamated or affiliated with Kensington, and on what grounds do the Local Government Board refuse to Gort the permission which it grants to Galway; and whether he will produce the correspondence between the Local Government Board, the Guardians, and the Secretary of the Gort Technical Instruction School?
§ MR. BRYCE (for Mr. J. MORLEY)The matter referred to in this question involves legal points in connection with the construction of the Technical Instruction Act, as to which the Local Government Board are in communication with the Irish Law Officers; and if the hon. Member will repeat the question next week, I hope to be then in a position to give him a reply.
