§ Mr. NOEL BUXTONasked whether, in view of the grants made by other great Powers to their schools at Constantinople, and the appeal made by His Majesty's Ambassador at that place for further funds, he will recommend an increase of the present grant to the British high school from £300 to a sum equal to that given by the German Government?
§ Sir E. GREYThe amount of the grant is that asked for in 1907. I will communicate with His Majesty's Ambassador as to the present requirements of the school.
§ Mr. G. A. LLOYDIs the right hon. Gentleman aware that our school in Constantinople is worse provided for than any of the schools of the other Great Powers, and may I ask whether, in view of the fact that the Sultan has already granted a site for a British school, it is not quite time that the British Government did something further for the educational needs of our community there?
§ Sir E. GREYThese are the reasons why I have said I would communicate with His Majesty's Ambassador.
