§ Dr. Kingasked the Minister of Education how many local education authorities are paying maintenance allowances to secondary school children over the age of 15 years above the Weaver scale, according to the Weaver scale, according to his own recommended scale, and below this scale, respectively.
§ Sir D. EcclesI would refer the hon. Member to the reply which I gave to his Question on 27th May, 1960. I have not asked local education authorities for further information about their arrangements since then, but I propose to do so before long.
