HC Deb 28 June 1900 vol 84 c1338
MR. YOXALL (Nottingham, W.)

I beg to ask the Vice-President of the Committee of Council on Education, if it is the intention of the Board to restore in the requirements in shorthand the former rate of forty words per minute.

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

I am not aware that the requirement of the Education Department in shorthand has ever been changed.
