§ 40. Miss PICTON-TURBERVILLasked asked the President of the Board of Education how many local authorities who did not include nursery schools on their first programme have, since his representations on the subject, done so?
§ Sir C. TREVELYANMost of the local education authorities to whom representations have been made, after the submission of their programmes, with regard to the inclusion of provision for nursery schools, still have the matter under consideration. Two authorities which did not include nursery schools in their original programmes have now submitted proposals.
§ Miss PICTON-TURBERVILLCould the right hon. Gentleman give the names of those two authorities?
§ Sir C. TREVELYANI have not got them here.
Viscountess ASTORDoes the right hon. Gentleman think that a pious hope in a circular to local authorities is of any use?
