HC Deb 30 March 1920 vol 127 cc1082-3
80. Colonel YATE

asked the President of the Board of Education how many inspectors of physical training have now been appointed; and when it is expected that the full staff of one man inspector for boys and one woman inspector for girls in each inspectorial division will be reached?

Mr. HERBERT FISHER

The number of inspectors of physical training on the Board's staff at the present time is 10. I cannot undertake to adopt the standard of a full staff suggested by the hon. and gallant Member.

Colonel YATE

May I ask the right hon. Gentleman what augmentation he does propose in regard to this very necessary training?

Mr. FISHER

I should like to have notice of that.

Captain LOSEBY

Will any special effort be made to give the House facilities to discuss this and other problems in connection with the right hon. Gentle- man's Department in the course of the coming year?

Mr. FISHER

That is a matter for the Leader of the House.
