§ 24. Sir HENRY CRAIKasked the Secretary for Scotland if resolutions have been received from the university courts of the Scottish universities desiring that powers should be given to modify the application of particular ordinances to the case of students engaged in military or other war service; and if he is prepared to further that object?
The SECRETARY for SCOTLAND (Mr. McKinnon Wood)The answer to both parts of my hon. Friend's question is in the affirmative. To give effect to the wishes of the universities legislation is necessary, and a Bill is being prepared which, I hope, will be introduced very shortly. I think it is very likely to be introduced in another place this afternoon.
