HC Deb 25 May 1894 vol 24 c1266
MR. CROMBIE (Kincardineshire)

I beg to ask the Secretary for Scotland whether the Government expects to introduce any legislation dealing with the question of secondary education in Scot-laud during the present Session; and whether, failing such, he will move that an Address be addressed to Her Gracious Majesty to appoint a Royal Commission on Secondary Education in Scotland?

THE SECRETARY FOR SCOTLAND (Sir G. TREVELYAN,) Glasgow, Bridgeton

The County Committees appointed last year have already done much work, and are gaining additional experience by the operation of their schemes. I do not think it would be well at present to do anything to interfere with the work upon which they are engaged.
