HC Deb 22 July 1954 vol 530 c133W
51. Rev. LI. Williams

asked the Minister of Education if she will take action to amend Section 5 (2) (b) of the Education (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act, 1948, in order to enable applicants for clothing bursaries to receive more generous treatment.

Mr. Pickthorn

No. My right hon. Friend has no reason to believe that the powers which local education authorities have to provide clothing are in any way inadequate.
