§ MR. C. ROUNDELL York, W.R., Skipton)I beg to ask the Parliamentary Charity Commissioner whether the Charity Commissioners recognise as a proper object of policy, and will henceforth be prepared to enable pension schemes for assistant masters of secondary schools to be framed, subject to their sanction in proper cases, and subject to proper conditions?
§ THE PARLIAMENTARY CHARITY COMMISSIONER (Mr. F. S. STEVENSON,) Suffolk, EyeNo action on the part of the Charity Commissioners is required to enable plans of insurance for pensions for assistant masters of secondary schools to be framed, unless it is proposed that the pension fund should be aided from endowment. There are few cases in which such aid can legitimately be afforded for financial reasons. In proper cases, and subject to proper conditions, the Commissioners will be prepared to further the object indicated.
