HC Deb 08 November 1937 vol 328 cc1422-3W
Mr. Gallacher

asked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Board of Education whether he will consider the introduction of legislation to provide adequate facilities for technical training, and the raising of the school age to 16 with adequate maintenance allowance?

Mr. Lindsay

As regards the first part of the question my noble Friend is alive to the importance of improving the facilities for technical education where these are deficient, and is already taking steps to secure this end by administrative action. The answer to the second part of the question is in the negative.
