§ 94. Mr. Hurdasked the Minister of Education to what extent her Department has, in the past year, grant-aided courses of instruction provided by local education authorities in hairdressing, flower arrangement, choral weekends, golf and other pastimes formerly outside the range of the State education service.
§ Miss HorsbrughFull information for last year is not yet available, but so far 59W as I am aware any classes in hairdressing and in flower arrangement provided by local education authorities were mainly vocational. I am sending my hon. Friend a copy of a circular in which I have recently suggested that local education authorities should consider making recreational classes financially self-supporting.
