HC Deb 07 May 1903 vol 122 c30
MR. SLOAN (Belfast, S.)

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland whether he will consider the advisability of repealing the regulations debarring Irish national school teachers from taking part in political meetings or joining political associations.

THE CHIEF SECRETARY FOR IRELAND (Mr. WYNDHAM,) Dover

I see no reason for repealing the Rule in question, which was framed in the interests of the teachers and of the schools.
