HC Deb 15 July 1913 vol 55 cc1065-6
81. Mr. HADDOCK

asked the President of the Board of Education if he can state when he will be able to consider and approve the new endowment schemes for the following schools in North Lonsdale: School No. 2, Dalton Church of England school; No. 3, Dalton-in-Furness, Ireleth, Church of England school; No. 12, Lower Allithwaite, Cartmel, Church of England school; No. 15, Blawith provided school;. Nos, 16 and 17, West Broughton, Authhurstside, and West Broughton, Broughton-in-Furness, Church of England schools; No. 18, Cartmel Fell Church of England school; No. 20, Claip, Sawrey, endowment school; No. 26, Dunnerdale-with-Southwaite provided school; No. 35r Osmotherley, Broughton Beck, school; No. 36, Pennington, Ulverston, school; No. 39, Staveley-in-Cartmel Church of England school; No. 40, Torver Church of England school; and Nos. 41 and 42, Urswick grammar school and Urswick, Bardsea, Church of England school?

The PARLIAMENTARY SECRETARY to the BOARD Of EDUCATION (Mr. Trevelyan)

A scheme has been made for the endowments connected with the school referred to as No. 40. Applications for schemes have not been received in the other cases mentioned, except for the endowments connected with the schools Nos. 2, 12, and 20, and for some of the endowments connected with those numbered 16 and 17. In several of the other cases schemes are not required as there is no difficulty in carrying out the existing trusts. The Board have found it impossible to deal systematically with the large number of small elementary endowments.

Mr. HADDOCK

Is the hon. Gentleman aware that some of those applications date from 1905?

Mr. TREVELYAN

I was not aware they went so far back.
