§ 39. Mr. MAXTONasked the Secretary for Scotland if ho has any statement to make with regard to the position of the Glasgow Veterinary College in reference to a continuation of the present grant till the end of the college session; and if the college will still be entitled to receive grants as a central institution from educational authorities?
§ Sir J. GILMOURAs regards the gap between the end of the current financial year and the end of the college session, I am awaiting a Report which the governors of the college are preparing, 2055 and which I have undertaken to consider. The discontinuance of the annual grant from the Board of Agriculture will not affect the position of the college as a central institution within the meaning of the Education (Scotland) Act, 1908.
