HC Deb 26 April 1923 vol 163 cc720-2W
Mr. STEPHEN

asked the President of the Board of Education the percentage of the total cost of the London County Council educational services provided by the National Exchequer; and the similar figure for the educational services provided by the Glasgow Education Authority?

Lord E. PERCY

Subject to the exclusion of expenditure on services not falling within the purview of the Board of Education or of any expenditure not recognised by the Board, one-half of the expenditure of the London County Council on education is met by grants from the Board. The second part of the question should be addressed to the Scottish Office.
