§ MR. W. E. H. LECKY (Dublin University)I beg to ask the Vice-President of the Committee of Council on Education whether, inasmuch as the existence of the Board of Visitors for the Science and Art 1070 Museum and Royal Botanic Gardens, Dublin, has proved of great advantage in making known to the Government the local opinion on questions affecting these institutions, he has any objection to some such local advisory board acting in association with the Council of the Royal College of Science and for the Metropolitan School of Art, Dublin?
§ THE VICE-PRESIDENT OF THE COMMITTEE OF COUNCIL ON EDUCATION (Sir JOHN GORST,) Cambridge UniversityNo; these institutions are entirely supported by the State, and the Committee of Council do not think it would be desirable to have a Board of Visitors for either of them.
