MR. CLAUDEHAY (Shoreditch, Hoxton)I beg to ask the Vice-President of the Committee of Council on Education whether the Board of Education have received complaints as to the condition of the Vaynor National School, County Brecon, and as to the accounts of the school; whether he can give dates on which such complaints, if any, have been received by the Board; whether these complaints have been investigated; and, if so, whether he can furnish particulars of the remedies which have been put into force to remove the alleged evils.
§ MR. WALTER LONG (for Sir J. GORST)Reports as to the condition of the school premises were made by the Inspector in 1900 and 1901, and the managers were required to make structural improvements, for which plans have now been furnished. A complaint about the accounts was made by one individual, but it proved on investigation to be of too trivial a character for further notice.
