32. Mr. ROWNTREE

asked the President of the Board of Education whether, under Clause 10 of the Education Bill or otherwise, it will be possible for a local education authority and for persons who set up a continuation school under the control and direction of the local education authority to provide instruction for a greater number of hours than provided in the Education Bill?

Mr. FISHER

The answer is in the affirmative, but attendance for the additional hours will not be obligatory.
