HC Deb 30 April 1897 vol 48 c1351
* SIR C. DILKE

asked the Vice President of the Council whether the Circular of the Stanton School Board did not reveal facts opposed to the views and intentions of the Government as to balances in necessitous schools; and, if so, by what means he intended to make the matter clear—whether by amendment of the Bill or by amendment of the practice of the Department?

THE VICE PRESIDENT OF THE COUNCIL (Sir J. GORST, Cambridge University)

said he had seen the Circular, and the facts were substantially correct. The Committee of Council would give the most careful consideration to any Amendments which might be moved to the Necessitous School Boards Bill in Committee.
