§ Mr. D. G. SOMERVILLEasked the President of the Board of Education if any instructions are issued by his Department to local education authorities generally with the object of promoting athletic associations among elementary and secondary school children?
§ Sir C. TREVELYANI am sending the hon. Member a copy of a pamphlet which I have just issued, impressing upon authorities the importance of providing adequate facilities for games and sports for all school children, and containing suggestions for their organisation. As the hon. Member is no doubt aware, playing fields are regarded as a normal adjunct of new senior schools.
