§ 25. Mr. Collindridgeasked the President of the Board of Education if he can give the assurance that children at schools for the deaf and dumb will be granted 963 facilities for educational improvement under the new Bill upon a standard equal to the conditions granted to other children.
§ Mr. ButlerYes, Sir. The Bill is designed to secure for the deaf no less than for hearing children such forms of education as may be suitable to their differing ages, abilities and aptitudes.
§ Mr. David GrenfellMay I ask my right hon. Friend whether the age limit for the deaf will be 15 or more?
§ Mr. ButlerThe age limit for the deaf is already 16.
