HC Deb 24 March 1904 vol 132 cc628-9
MR. BOLAND

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland whether he will grant the two Returns relative to the Marlborough Street Training College, standing on to-day's Paper.

MR. WYNDHAM

The Returns will be prepared and communicated to the hon. Member. I hardly think they are of sufficient importance to lay on the Table as Parliamentary Papers.

The Returns are as follows:—

Marlborough Street Training College (Roman Catholic Students): Return showing the number of Roman Catholic students who completed a two years course of training in Marlborough Street Training College in each year from 1893 to 1903 both inclusive, and the number of Roman Catholics so trained for two years in Marlborough Street Training College who on the conclusion of their course of training were employed as principal or assistant teachers in National schools in Ireland in each year from 1893 to 1903 both inclusive; the figures to distinguish in each case between those who obtained permanent employment and those who were engaged only as substitutes in a temporary way.

Marlborough Street Training College (Students trained): Return showing the number of students who completed a two years course of training in Marlborough Street Training College in each year from 1893 to 1903 both inclusive; the number of students so trained for two years in Marlborough Street Training College who, on the conclusion of their course of training, were employed as principal or assistant teachers in National schools in Ireland in each year from 1893 to 1903, both inclusive. The figures to distinguish in each case between those who obtained permanent employment and those who were engaged only as substitutes in a temporary way.
