§ MR. M'GILLIGAN (Fermanagh, S.)I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland whether, as the instructions issued by the Commissioners of National Education to their Inspectors in reference to results examinations have an important bearing on these examinations, copies of the instructions are sent also to the teachers; and, if not, would he direct them to be so sent in the future?
MR. J. MORLEYThe Commissioners of National Education inform me that no special Code of Instructions is issued by them to the Inspectors in reference to the results' examinations. All necessary details relating to these examinations are personally discussed every year between the Commissioners and the Inspectors, and by this means uniformity is secured in the determination of the marks assigned by the Inspectors on the answering of the pupils.
