HC Deb 02 June 1902 vol 108 c1126
MR. LAMBERT (Devonshire, South Molton)

I beg to ask the First Lord of the Treasury whether it is contemplated by the Government that any portion of the cost of the Education Bill shall be borne by the Exchequer instead of wholly by rates levied by the local authority.

MR. A. J. BALFOUR

I am not in a position at the present time to make any statement on this point.
