§ MR. E. J. C. MORTON (Devonport)I beg to ask the Vice President of the Committee of Council on Education whether he can now state when the Bill to provide for further financial aid to Board Schools will be introduced; and whether he can promise on behalf of the Government that the Bill shall be read a 411 First time and printed before the Division on the Second Reading of the Voluntary Schools Bill is taken?
§ THE FIRST LORD OF THE TREASURYI have to say, as I before indicated in reply to some observations of the hon. Member for Northampton, I cannot give any promise as to the exact date when this Bill will be brought in, nor could it be before the Second Reading of the Voluntary Schools Bill.
