HC Deb 29 June 1909 vol 7 cc207-8
Mr. LAIDLAW

asked the Under-Secretary of State for India whether the Secre- tary of State for India is aware of the dissatisfaction of the European community of Bengal with the Code of Regulations for European Schools in Bengal, 1908, which is to take effect in 1910; and whether he will have the operation of the code postponed until the schools are better prepared to meet the increased expenditure that will be involved?

The UNDER-SECRETARY for INDIA (The Master of Elibank)

The Secretary of State has received no representation from the European community of Bengal and has no information on the subject. Any memorial sent in the usual manner will, of course, be considered.

Mr. WILLIAM REDMOND

You might have been at it all your life.
