asked the Secretary to the Local Government Board whether he is now in a position to state the nature of the scheme arrived at between the Treasury and the Local Government Board in regard to the maintenance allowances to be granted to the wives, families, and dependants of officers?

Mr. HAYES FISHER

The scheme has been submitted to the Treasury, and I hope to be able to make an announcement very shortly.
