HC Deb 26 February 1897 vol 46 c1259
MR. KNOX

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland how it is proposed to distribute the £12,600 to be voted by Supplementary Estimate to the convent and monastery schools, as representing their share of the arrears of the Irish fee grant?

MR. GERALD BALFOUR

The amount will be distributed to the capitation convent and monastery schools in proportion to the average daily attendance of pupils (over three and under 15 years of age) for each of the years concerned.
