Mr. CHANCELLOR

asked the President of the Board of Education whether, in view of the Departmental Committee he has formed to consider the question of teachers' superannuation and amendments thereof, he will state the number of certificated teachers now in recorded service who failed to accept the Teachers' Superannuation Act of 1898?
