HC Deb 18 October 1909 vol 12 c9
Mr. BOLAND

asked the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether he can now state when the Jersey Education Bill is listed for hearing by the Privy Council?

The UNDER-SECRETARY for the HOME DEPARTMENT (Mr. Masterman)

As the hon. Member was informed on the 4th instant, the opposing petitions have been forwarded to the Jersey States for observations. Some time must elapse before the Committee of the Privy Council for the Affairs of Jersey and Guernsey is furnished with all the information necessary for their consideration of the matter, and for the present no decision can be reached as to the course which will be followed in the case.
