VOLUNTARY SCHOOL RATE (DIDSBURY).

HC Deb 28 June 1897 vol 50 cc639-40

MR. J. CARVELL WILLIAMS (Notts, Mansfield)

I beg to ask the President of the Local Government Board whether he is aware that the Demand Note for the General District Hate of the Urban District Council of Withington, Manchester, contains the item: Didsbury Voluntary School Rate, at 1d. in the pound, optional; and whether he will take steps to procure the omission of the item in future?

THE PRESIDENT OF THE LOCAL GOVERNMENT BOARD (Mr. HENRY CHAPLIN,) Lincolnshire, Sleaford

At present I can only state that I am in communication with the Urban District Council on the subject. The Question is to be considered by them at a meeting to-morrow.
