HC Deb 12 March 1923 vol 161 c1041
91. Sir CYRIL COBB

asked the President of the Board of Education whether all the expenditure of a local education authority which elects to exercise its full powers under Section 107 (Choice of Employment) of the Education Act, 1921, will rank for grant except such as is met by the Ministry of Labour under Clause 6 of the Unemployment Insurance Bill now before the House?

The PRESIDENT of the BOARD of EDUCATION (Mr. Edward Wood)

If a local education authority exercises choice of employment powers under the conditions contemplated in Clause 6 of the Unemployment Insurance Bill, the Board propose to recognise for grant so much of the expenditure of the authority as is not met by the Ministry of Labour, provided that the expenditure is such as the Board can approve.
