§ MR. SOARES (Devonshire, Barnstaple)I beg to ask the President of 987 the Board of Education whether he can state the number of provided schools in England in which there is no religious teaching; and whether he can state the usual characteristics of the religious teaching which is given in provided schools.
§ MR. BIRRELLI have no information on the subject. But a Return has been moved for in another place which, so soon as it is completed, will provide a considerable amount of information upon the subject.
§ LORD R. CECILCan the right hon. Gentleman say when the Return will be completed?
§ MR. BIRRELLI am as anxious as the noble Lord that it should be completed as soon as possible. But I have not the least control over the matter.
