§ 46. Mr. Sorensenasked the Secretary of State for the Colonies which States in the Federation of Malaya do not levy a local education rate; and for what reason.
§ Mr. Lennox-BoydThe States of Johore, Kelantan and Perlis, do not levy a local education rate. I understand that in Johore and Perlis the reason has been the administrative difficulty involved, while in Kelantan it has been held that the standard of educational facilities provided did not justify a rate. Consideration is being given in Johore and Kelantan to the introduction of an education rate.
