Colonel Sandeman Allenasked the Paliamentary Secretary to the Board of Education whether his attention has been drawn to the case of James W. Jeffrey, alias Jim Brett, a Communist leader in Birkenhead; and, in view of the fact that this man was fined £5 recently for disturbing the public peace, is he satisfied that this man should remain a teacher in a State-aided school?
Mr. LindsayI have seen a Press report of this case and am making inquiries. I must defer my answer to my hon. and gallant Friend's question until the inquiries are complete.
