HC Deb 20 April 1896 vol 39 c1268
Mr. J. BRYCE

I beg to ask the First Lord of the Treasury whether he can state on what plan there will be allotted to Scotland a grant from the Exchequer proportionately equivalent to the new grant proposed to be made to England for Educational purposes, under the Educational Bill brought in by Her Majesty's Government; and in what form it is intended to bring before the House such equivalent grant?

THE FIRST LORD OF THE TREASURY

This Question is now under discussion between the Scotch Office and the Treasury, and no conclusion has yet been come to.

MR. BRYCE

Will the right hon. Gentleman say when he will be able to answer the Question?

THE FIRST LORD OF THE TREASURY

If the right hon. Gentlemen will put his Question down, in about a fortnight I may be able to answer it.
