§ 52. Mr. C. BATHURSTasked the Prime Minister when it is proposed to lay before this House and the country the Government's proposals for establishing a national scheme of education, as promised in the King's Speech; and whether any opportunity will, prior to the close of the Session, be afforded to this House of discussing such proposals?
§ The PRIME MINISTERI cannot yet name any date or indicate the time which may be afforded this Session for discussing the proposals which we intend to place before the House.
§ Mr. C. BATHURSTHave the Government yet decided what the national scheme of education consists of?
§ The PRIME MINISTERThe proper time to ask that question is when the Bill is introduced. It would be a novel practice to make known the details of a Bill before its introduction.
