HC Deb 21 April 1898 vol 56 c668
MR. J. W. CROMBIE (Kincardineshire)

I beg to ask the Lord Advocate whether he will grant a Return showing how many male teachers over 65 years of age, and female teachers over 55 years of age, are at present teaching in the Board Schools of Scotland?

THE LORD ADVOCATE (Mr. A. GRAHAM MURRAY,) Buteshire

I am favourably disposed towards granting a Return including the information which my hon. Friend requires, and if he will confer with me privately I shall be glad to arrange with him the precise scope of the Return.
