§ Sir W. Anstruther-Grayasked the Secretary of State for Scotland how many school children were billeted in camps this season to assist with the potato harvest ; and what his plans are for next year.
§ Mr. J. StuartThis year the number of children billeted in camps for three weeks for potato lifting was 915, or about two per cent. of the children assisting with the harvest. As to next year, while children will again be required for the potato harvest, I have decided that none will be billeted.
