asked the Vice President of the Council, Whether it is to be understood, in the case of schools where the next inspection takes place after April 30th, e.g. during the month of May, and where the teachers and managers may have taught and worked during two-thirds of a year under the regulations of the present Revised Code, that they are now to be subject to the new restrictions and regulations of the Re-revised Code; and, whether it would not be more reasonable that each school should come under the new Code after, and not previous to, its next inspection?
replied, that the hon. Gentleman would find in the Minute preceding the Code an answer to the first Question. After the 30th of April the inspection would be under the new Code. For the reason he had given, in reply to the Question of the hon. Member for East Somerset (Mr. E. Bright), it would be much against the interests of the managers if that course were not adopted.
