HC Deb 17 April 1907 vol 172 cc998-9
MR. GWYNN (Galway)

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland why an inspector of national schools, Mr. McMillan, who is hostile to the teaching of Irish, should be kept on duty in the Irish-speaking county of Mayo; and whether he will make representations to occasion this gentleman's removal to another part of Ireland, and to secure that some restraint is put upon the referred to.

MR. BIRRELL

The Commissioners of National Education, inform me that their inspectors are transferred periodically from one circuit to another. The question of the transfer of Mr. McMillan is at present under the Commissioners' consideration.
