§ MR. PAUL (Edinburgh, S.)I beg to ask the Vice President of the Committee of Council on Education whether he can now state what steps have been taken to improve the position of the attendants at the Edinburgh Museum, and to place them more nearly on a level with the attendants at South Kensington?
§ MR. ACLANDThe Department of Science and Art have for some time been in correspondence with Her Majesty's Treasury and with the Director of the Edinburgh Museum, with a view to modifying the present arrangements in respect to the service of attendants at the Edinburgh Museum, and it is hoped that a satisfactory solution of the matter will be shortly arrived at.
