HC Deb 25 July 1907 vol 179 c143
MR. PIKE PEASE (Darlington)

I beg to ask the President of the Local Government Board whether he will state in how many areas the provisions of the Education (Provision of Meals) Act, 1906, are being applied.

MR. McKENNA

I must refer the hon. Member to the Answer which I gave to a similar Question on the 24th June last. .In addition to the seven cases there given, the Board have sanctioned the expenditure of rates upon the purchase of food by four other authorities viz., Bath, Bradford, Norwich, and Cannock.
