§ Colonel WEDGWOODasked the President of the Board of Education whether any local education authorities have yet submitted drafts of schemes for the part-time education of young persons between fourteen and eighteen; and, if so, whether he will have that scheme which the Board considers most suitable laid upon the Table of this House?
§ Mr. FISHERNo statutory schemes have yet been formally submitted to the Board, though they have had informal communications with some authorities upon provisional proposals. It is not the intention of the Board to issue model schemes, and I cannot commit myself to the procedure suggested in the second part of the question.
