asked the Secretary of State for Scotland the reasons for the dismissal of Mr. W. S. Low from his position as headmaster of Rossie Farm Approved School, Angus; if he is satisfied with the conditions under which the school is being administered; and if he is aware that the staff is inadequately trained for carrying out the work of this large approved school.
Secretary of State was originally the title given to the two officials who conducted the Royal Correspondence under Elizabeth I. Now it is the title held by some of the more important Government Ministers, for example the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs.
