§ * SIR CHARLES DILKEI beg to ask the Vice President of the Committee of Council on Education whether the increased grant to poor School Board districts, after the first year in which it is paid, will be counted in reduction of the rate, and the grant, therefore, pro tanto reduced in subsequent years?
§ SIR J. GORSTThe grant in the first year will depend on the rate needed when there was no such assistance given. In subsequent years the grant will be based on the rate needed when such, assistance is given, which will presumably be somewhat less.
