HC Deb 09 May 1904 vol 134 c773
MR. SAMUEL YOUNG (Cavan, E.)

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland whether he is aware that two teachers in county Meath, Circuit 9, District 24, roll, boys' school 5,732, girls, 5,605, had their salaries reduced in consequence of an epidemic which lasted only two months, during which time the school was closed; whether it is the practice of the Board to continue full salaries for twelve months in the event of epidemics; if so, will he see that the money withheld be now paid to these teachers.

MR. WYNDHAM

The question of the payment made to the teachers of these schools will be reconsidered by the Commissioners.
