HC Deb 14 March 1960 vol 619 c73W
Mr. Malcolm MacPherson

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland how many children attend non-fee-paying schools outside the local education committee area in which they reside; and what fees are chargeable in respect of such children.

Mr. Maclay

About 3,350. Inter-authority payments in respect of such pupils are a matter for agreement between the education authorities concerned. I understand that the local authorities' associations have recommended their members to adopt a standard charge of £65 a session.
