HC Deb 20 February 1930 vol 235 c1576
68. Mr. MORLEY

asked the President of the Board of Education if he will favourably consider the formation of a national advisory council, consisting of representatives of the National Union of Teachers and the local education authorities, to act in an advisory and consultative capacity to the Board of Education?

Sir C. TREVELYAN

The Board are already assisted by a statutory Consultative Committee consisting of members qualified to represent teachers and local education authorities, as well as other bodies interested in education, and I am not prepared at present to set up a separate advisory council such as is suggested.
