HC Deb 16 November 1893 vol 18 c1029
MR. CROSFIELD (Lincoln)

I beg to ask the Vice President of the Committee of Council on Education whether he is aware that Part IV. of the Appendix to the Report of the Committee of Council on Education, in pages 683 and 849, contains exaggerated figures in the columns headed "number of scholars for whom accommodation is provided" in schools aided by Parliamentary grants; and whether the Department will revise these figures before the issue of the next Report, so as to represent more accurately the present capacity of each elementary school?

THE VICE PRESIDENT OF THE COUNCIL (Mr. ACLAND,) York, W.R., Rotherham

If my hon. Friend will be good enough to call my attention to the particular figures to which he alludes I will have them carefully examined. The figures are kept under careful revision from year to year, but they cannot always be up to date in cases where the accommodation of a school has been altered very recently before the list goes to Press.
