HC Deb 31 July 1930 vol 242 cc724-5W
Sir C. RAWSON

asked the President of the Board of Education whether his attention has been directed to the inadequate powers given by Sections 147 and 155 of the Education Act, 1921, to local authorities and the Board of Education for the proper supervision of small private schools conducted under conditions inimical to the health of the students; and whether he is prepared to introduce legislation to deal with the matter?

Mr. MORGAN JONES

My right hon. Friend has received certain representations, but he is afraid that he cannot undertake to introduce legislation dealing with this matter at the present time.
