§ MR. TALBOT (Oxford University)I beg to ask the Vice-President of the Committee of Council on Education 70 whether, in estimating deficiencies in school accommodation in the district of the London School Board, the population of each parish as ascertained by the Census of 1891 is taken as the basis of calculation, or whether any attempt is made to ascertain the actual population of the present day.
§ SIR J. GORSTThe basis of calculation is the census of children of the elementary school class taken in the spring of each year by the London School Board.
