HC Deb 18 March 1926 vol 193 c610W
Sir G. BERRY

asked the President of the Board of Education if his attention has been drawn to the recent Report of the Council of British Ophthalmologists on the education of children suffering from defective vision due to myopia and other causes; and whether he proposes to take any action with regard to the recommendations contained therein?

Lord E. PERCY

I have seen the Report in question. Provision has already been made in various parts of the country for the education of partially-blind children on the general lines recommended in the Report, and I hope that this provision will be extended as circumstances permit.
