Part of Orders of the Day — Local Government (Scotland) Bill. – in the House of Commons at on 26 April 1929.
Is it not a fact that we have transferred from the Education Act the power to make payments to members of a county council? Is it not true that under the Education Act the education authority not only allowed payments to be made to members of education authorities as such, but that where those members of education authorities were appointed to act on school manage- ment committees, they were entitled to compensation if they lost work through attending those committees? If that is not the case I shall have to refund some money, because I have been paid in that way in the past.
