HC Deb 02 February 1897 vol 45 c1067
MR. EDMUND ROBERTSON (Dundee)

I beg to ask the First Lord of the Treasury whether the proposed repeal of so much of Section 19 of the Education Act 1876, as imposes a limit on the Parliamentary grant to day schools is intended to carry with it the repeal of Section 53, which applies the same conditions to Scotland?

THE FIRST LORD OF THE TREASURY

The Bill does not refer to Scotland, and does not touch the question of the 17s. 6d. limit in respect to Scotland.
