§ MR. SEYMOUR KEAYI beg to ask the Vice President of the Committee of Council on Education whether, in consequence of the changes in the Education Code of the present year, and as some time must elapse before books and tables adapted thereto can be placed in the bauds of pupils, the date at which examinations began can be postponed to a date subsequent to that at present fixed —namely, the 10th of this month?
§ SIR G. TREVELYAN(who replied) said: The changes introduced into the examinations are inconsiderable; but in- 460 structions will be given that due allowance and indulgence shall be made until the end of this year, in view of these changes.
