§ MR. JOHN CAMPBELL (Armagh, S.)I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland if he can say when the national teachers are likely to be paid the balance of the residual grant, 1900–1901.
† See preceding volume, p. 1260.
§ MR. WYNDHAMPayment of the grant for the period mentioned has long since been made.
§ MR. THOMAS O'DONNELLI beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland whether the consolidated salaries of all Irish national school teachers have been finally determined; whether special consideration has been given to all cases where the average of three years income would be inequitable; and whether he proposes to institute any change in the constitution of a Board which has failed, after two years, to finish this work.
§ MR. WYNDHAMThe reply to the first and second queries is in the affirmative. The suggestion that there has been remissness on the part of the Board in determining the salaries of the teachers is not warranted by the facts.
