§ MR. ERNEST GRAY (West Ham, N.)To ask the Secretary to the Board of Education whether he can state what is the percentage of National scholars now in 386 attendance at the Royal College of Science who are in receipt of extra aid in the form of scholarships or grants from local education authorities.
(Answered by Sir William Anson.) Since 1902 only one case has arisen in which a National scholar in the Royal College of Science has requested the Board's permission to hold his National scholarship conjointly with a scholarship or grant from a local education authority. In this case permission was given by the Board.
