§ 38. Mr. Kenneth Lindsayasked the Minister of Education what steps he is taking to promote the interchange of teachers between countries who have signed the Treaty of Brussels.
§ Mr. HardmanMy right hon. Friend is anxious to encourage the interchange of teachers between this country and any other country with which such arrangements are practicable. It will be one of the objects of the recently established Central Bureau for Educational Visits and Exchanges to review and supplement, where possible, the work of existing agencies in this respect.
§ Mr. LindsayWill my hon. Friend take note that Article 3 of this Treaty lays very special emphasis on co-operating in this sphere between the countries concerned, and will he also take more active steps, now that the Treaty has been signed, to see that Western Union is based on something positive and not just on the hostilities of Eastern Europe?
§ Mr. HardmanWe have already taken positive steps. The Central Bureau for 3332 Educational Visits and Exchanges has been set up by my right hon. Friend, and will no doubt supplement all previous activities.
