HC Deb 14 July 1899 vol 74 c884
SIR CHARLES CAMERON (Glasgow, Bridgeton)

I beg to ask the Lord Advocate whether any steps have yet been taken by the Education Department to secure for the 900 children of school age in the orphan homes of Scotland that education which the law of Scotland enacts that every child of school age shall compulsorily receive.

* MR. A. GRAHAM MURRAY

The Department has been in communication with Mr. Quarrier and the School Board on the subject, and is now awaiting a reply to a letter addressed to the latter.
