HC Deb 19 April 1909 vol 3 c1372W
Mr. HICKS BEACH

asked the Chancellor of the Exenequer why no provision is made in the Estimates for 1909–10 for a grant to the Royal Agricultural College, Cirencester?

Mr. LLOYD-GEORGE

The Treasury were unable to agree to increased provision being made in the Estimates for the Board of Agriculture and Fisheries, 1909-10, under Sub-head E (Grants for Agricultural and Dairy Education) pending the settlement of certain questions of principle affecting the organisation under which such grants are distributed.
