§ 109. Mr. Fortasked the Minister of Education whether grants to cover the cost of transport can be paid to parents in Great Harewood whose daughters attend the Girls' High School at Accrington.
§ Mr. TomlinsonUnder the Lancashire authority's arrangements, senior children may have their travelling expenses paid if they live more than the statutory walking distance of three miles from school by a reasonable route. The divisional executive have been considering by what route it would be reasonable to measure the distance in this case, and I understand that it has now been decided that the majority of the girls concerned will qualify for a travelling grant.
