HC Deb 12 June 1907 vol 175 c1429
MR. SLOAN

I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland whether, in view of the fact that extra fees for the teaching of Irish have been restored, he will restore the fees for the teaching of mathematics, so as to deal justly with those districts in which mathematics is as essential as Gaelic, and especially as teachers have been informed, when asking an increase of income, that it could be supplemented by teaching extra subjects.

MR. BIRRELL

The question of extra fees for mathematics is at present under consideration.
