HC Deb 15 May 1947 vol 437 cc173-4W
24. Mr. P. Wells

asked the Minister of Education if he will take the necessary action to ensure that debts in the form of loans made by his Department to students, whilst undergoing training as teachers, are cancelled.

Mr. Hardman

Loans are not made by the Ministry of Education. If my hon. Friend has in mind the loans made by local education authorities, the position remains as it was stated in a reply given on 10th June, 1946, of which I am sending my hon. Friend a copy.
