HC Deb 18 March 1936 vol 310 cc432-3
56. Mr. T. SMITH

asked the President of the Board o Education whether he is aware that Circular 1443 on meals for school children is not obtainable from His Majesty's, Stationery Office; and whether, in view of the great interest taken in the subject he will make arrangements for copies to be available to the public?

The PRESIDENT of the BOARD of EDUCATION (Mr. Oliver Stanley)

In view of the small number of requests that have been received from members of the public for additional copies of Circular 1443, which was issued for the guidance of local education authorities, I do not consider that I should be justified in asking His Majesty's Stationery Office to place it on sale. Copies of the Circular, however, can be supplied to local education authorities and recognised associations at the cost of 6d. for 25 copies.

Mr. BROOKE

Will Members of the House be supplied with copies?

Mr. STANLEY

If hon. Members wish to have copies, I shall be glad to see that they get them.
