§ MR. W. THORBURN (Peebles and Selkirk)I beg to ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether, seeing that Government has now made provision in the Supplementary Estimates for the larger Foe Grant duo to Scotland during the financial year 1895–6, they will, as in the case of Ireland, make further provision to remedy the injustice sustained by Scotland during the preceding three years under the late Government?
§ THE CHANCELLOR OF THE EXCHEQUER (SIR MICHAEL HICKS BEACH,) Bristol, W.This matter is now under the consideration of the Treasury and the Scottish Education Department. Of course, Scotland must be treated on the same basis as Ireland, with regard to the Fee Grant in the three years preceding 1895–6.
