§ MR. THOMAS O'DONNELL (Kerry, W.)I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland if he will state whether the reduction of the average for first assistant teachers from sixty to fifty dates from the 1st April last.
§ MR. WYNDHAM; No provision has yet been made by Parliament for effecting this reduction, and until this has been done it cannot be stated from what date it will take effect. The matter is one for consideration in connection with the Development Grant Estimate.
In reply to a further Question Mr. WYNDHAM said he would be in a position to give fuller information to-morrow in reply to the Question of which the hon. Member for Waterford had given notice.
