HC Deb 25 April 1904 vol 133 c1053
MR. WEIR

I beg to ask the Secretary for Scotland if he will consider the expediency of so amending the Scotch Education Code as to render instruction in cookery and domestic economy compulsory during the last year of a girl's attendance at school.

* THE LORD ADVOCATE (Mr. SCOTT DICKSON,) Glasgow, Bridgton

I am to refer the hon. Member to my reply to his Question No. 9 on 16th March.† I am not prepared to interfere with the discretion of School Boards and school managers as to the use they shall make of the facilities which the Code affords.
