HC Deb 09 August 1905 vol 151 cc798-9
MR. YOXALL (Nottingham, W.)

To ask the Secretary of State for the Colonies if he has received any information as to pending measures proposed by the Government of Jamaica which would affect adversely the system of popular education in the island; and if he will direct suspension of the changes until his inquiry into the matter is complete.

(Answered by Mr. Secretary Lyttelton.) I do not quite know what measures are referred to, but I have recently written to the Governor on the subject of education, and I shall no doubt hear in due course what changes, if any, are contemplated.
