HC Deb 26 July 1898 vol 62 c1323
LORD BALCARRES (Lancs, Chorley)

I beg to ask the Vice-President of the Committee of Council on Education whether the successor to the retiring Director for Art will be required to give his whole time to the public service?

THE VICE-PRESIDENT OF THE COMMITTEE OF COUNCIL ON EDUCATION (Sir J. GORST,) Cambridge University

No change in the duties of the Director for Art has been yet determined on.

LORD BALCARRES

Then may I assume that he will give his whole time to the public service?

SIR J. GORST

The noble Lord is entitled to assume nothing except that no charge in the duties has been made. I cannot answer for what may be done hereafter.
