§ SIR. THOMAS ESMONDE (Wexford, N.)To ask the President of the Board 1463 of Education whether he will take steps to send down an official to ascertain on the spot the local circumstances before sanctioning the erection of new public elementary schools at Trelogan and Gwespyr (Flint).
(Answered by Mr. Birrell.) In both of the cases named the question of the provision of a council school by the local authority has already been definitely decided by the Board in the affirmative. In the first-named case, however, there is an outstanding point as to the size of the school, and on this I shall be happy to send an official to the locality, as requested, to ascertain the circumstances with precision for the information of the Board.
