§ MR. J. MURPHYTo ask the Chief Secretary to the Lord-Lieutenant of Ireland if he will consider the question of adding a fair number of persons directly connected with Irish primary education on the first Senates and governing bodies of the proposed new Universities and their constituent colleges; and whether he is aware that the omission 1108 of any such representatives in the published lists is likely to lead to dissatisfaction.
(Answered by Mr. Birrell.)The senates and governing bodies have already attained substantially the maximum size, and, as at present advised, I do not propose to add to the number of members in the manner suggested.
