HC Deb 07 May 1906 vol 156 cc983-4
MR. ARNOLD-FORSTER

I beg to ask the President of the Board of Education whether unvaccinated persons are allowed to act as teachers in public elementary schools in any European country save the United Kingdom; and, if so, which are the countries in which the employment of such persons is permitted?

THE PRESIDENT OF THE BOARD OF EDUCATION (Mr. BIRRELL,) Bristol, N.

I do not possess the requisite information for replying to the Question; but as the matter is one of general public interest and importance I will ask my right hon. friend the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs if he will be so good as to obtain as full information as possible upon the point—;including also the question of re-vaccination.
