§ Mr. MORGAN JONESasked the President of the Board of Education the estimated annual cost for England and Wales of raising the school-leaving age to 15; and how the estimated cost is allocated as between additional building cost, training of teachers, salaries of teachers, loan charges, other expenses of maintenance, and administration?
§ Lord E. PERCYI am afraid that any estimate of this kind, based on present information, would be so hypothetical as not to justify the very considerable amount of time and labour which it would involve, but the hon. Member will. 2329W I think, find some useful data in the reply given by my right hon. Friend the Chancellor of the Exchequer to the hon. Member for Don Valley (Mr. T. Williams) on the 30th June, 1925, a copy of which I am sending him.
