HC Deb 15 October 1912 vol 42 cc1049-50
28. Mr. LUNDON

asked the Secretary for Scotland if he will state how much of the £2,684,000 expended on primary education in Scotland in the year 1910-11 is Imperial money and how much is raised from local values?

Mr. McKINNON WOOD

The amount of the Grants from the Parliamentary Vote and the Education (Scotland) Fund to local education authorities including managers of voluntary schools, during the year 1910-11 was £2,406,911, and the total payment from the rates in respect of all branches of education was £1,644,546. It is, however, not possible to state the exact proportions in respect of any one branch of education in Scotland.
