HC Deb 17 August 1916 vol 85 cc2090-1W
Mr. BYRNE

asked what steps have been taken by the Commissioners of National Education in Ireland to put into effect the decision of the Chancellor of the Exchequer to have the salaries of Irish national teachers paid monthly; and on what date teachers in Ireland may expect to receive their first monthly payment?

Mr. DUKE

The Commissioners of National Education are being consulted as to the administrative arrangements necessary to give effect to the decision referred to. I am not able at present to say from what date the change will take effect. No time will be lost before making an announcement.
