§ Mr. J. P. FARRELLasked the Chief Secretary whether the Commissioners of Education had recently been asked to consider the advisability of monthly payment of teachers; and, if not, whether he will call for a return to show the extra amount of labour which this would involve and, if the same is found to be inconsiderable, will he advise the Board to change the present system of payments from a quarterly to a monthly one?
§ Mr. BIRRELLI have nothing to add to the numerous replies I have given to questions on this subject early in the present Session, and to the statement which I made in Debate on 23rd May last.
