HC Deb 16 March 1897 vol 47 c764
SIR HENRY HAVELOCK-ALLAN (Durham, S.E.)

I beg to ask the First Lord of the Treasury whether the Government propose to deal with the question of secondary education this year, seeing that that matter was included in the Education Bill withdrawn last year, and has been omitted from the Bill now before the House?

THE FIRST LORD OF THE TREASURY (Mr. A. J. BALFOUR,) Manchester, E.

In answer to my hon. and gallant Friend I have to say that, as he is aware, we are engaged in one Education Bill, and have in immediate prospect another dealing with primary education. Under these circumstances there is no great hope that we shall be able to deal with the matters to which he refers in the course of the present Session.

Forward to
