HC Deb 24 May 1906 vol 157 c1438
MR. MURPHY

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutentant of Ireland if he has taken any steps to secure for elementary education in Ireland any equivalent for the annual sum of £1,000,000 estimated as required for elementary education in England and Wales under the present Education Bill; and, if not or in any event, whether he can state what sum Ireland is entitled to as an equivalent for this sum.

MR. BRYCE

The subject mentioned in the Question will not escape the attention of His Majesty's Government, but the time has not arrived for making a statement regarding it. I may refer the hon. Member to the Answer given by my right hon. friend the Chancellor of the Exchequer to the Question of the hon. Member for North Derry on April 30th.†
