HC Deb 26 July 1922 vol 157 cc465-6
80. Mr. MILLS

asked the President of the Board of Education whether the Birmingham day continuation schools have been abandoned by administrative action; and, if so, why Parliament is being asked to absolve the London County Council from its statutory commitment when Parliamentary sanction was dispensed with in the parallel case of the Birmingham schools?

The PRESIDENT of the BOARD of EDUCATION (Mr. Herbert Fisher)

I may refer the hon. Member to the reply given to the right hon. Gentleman the Member for Deptford on the 19th June last.
