§ MR. BOLAND (Kerry, S.)I beg to ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland, whether any new plans or rules for the erection of teachers' residences have been adopted; and, if so, in view of the fact that the maximum grant of £250 hitherto allowed is now insufficient, can he say whether and to what extent this sum has been increased.
§ MR. BIRRELLThe answer is in the negative. The amount of loan for a teacher's residence could not be increased beyond £250 without legislation.
