§ Captain ERSKINE-BOLSTasked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Board of Education the extent to which the policy outlined in Circular 1421 has now been put into practice; and what will be the approximate amount of new money which will be realised annually from the new secondary school fees?
§ Mr. RAMSBOTHAMThe arrangements of all local education authorities under Circular 1421 have been approved. On the basis of the estimates submitted by the authorities it appears that the ultimate annual saving to public funds resulting from the adoption of the new arrangements will be of the order of £400,000.
