HC Deb 16 March 1931 vol 249 cc1689-90W
Mr. COVE

asked the President of the Board of Education what income of the parent would debar a candidate who held no other scholarship and was without private means from obtaining a, maintenance grant or a Grant-in-aid of fees under Article 5 of the State Scholarship Regulations, 1930, respectively?

Mr. LEES-SMITH

There is no fixed limit of parent's income which debars the scholar from receiving assistance under the State scholarship scheme. Each case is dealt with on its merits, and consideration is given not only to the amount of income but to its nature and to the other calls upon it.
