HC Deb 19 February 1901 vol 89 cc495-6
MR. CROMBIE

I beg to ask the First Lord of the Treasury whether the educational measures promised in the King's Speech will include an Education Bill for Scotland.

MR. A. J. BALFOUR

I am not prepared to say what action will be taken in pursuance of the announcement until the matter has been further considered in consultation with the Secretary for Scotland.

MR. BARTLEY

Will it be introduced before Easter?

MR. A. J. BALFOUR

I have told the House already that we have come to no decision on the subject.
