HC Deb 10 February 1938 vol 331 cc1256-7
68. Sir N. Grattan-Doyle

asked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Board of Education, whether his attention has been drawn to a report of an investigation by the National Institute of Industrial Psychology to the effect that the use of yellow blackboards with blue chalk is to be preferred to those at present in use; and whether he proposes to make any recommendation to local education authorities in the matter?

The Parliamentary Secretary to the Board of Education (Mr. Kenneth Lindsay)

The answer to the first part of the question is in the affirmative. The question of the adoption of the recommendations of the report is one for the consideration of the authorities responsible for the schools.
