§ Motion made, and Question proposed, "That the Schedule be the Schedule to the Bill."
§ Mr. HannanMay I ask the Joint Under-Secretary whether he would consider, even at this late stage of the Bill, 1099 paragraph 1 (iii), which states that one representative of the Board will be representing schools? The hon. Gentleman will, perhaps, recall that on Second Reading I stressed the importance of the use that the schools could make of the museums for educational purposes. I ask the Joint Under-Secretary to consider increasing the number of representatives from the schools. By paragraph 1 (e) (iv), there are to be eight persons
representing such public interests other than archaeological.If one were transferred from this category to the representation from the schools, it would strengthen and give a greater impetus to the interest in museums from the educational angle.
§ Mr. Henderson StewartI sympathise with the point made by the hon. Member and undertake that we will give close consideration to his suggestion.
§ Bill reported, with an Amendment; as amended, considered; read the Third time, and passed, with an Amendment.
