Legislative Council.
ED-CATION. A return was ordered oh the Hon. H. Feldwick's motion showing what Education Boards permitted their inspectors to examine private schools and what Boards did not. Speaking on this subject, the 3on. W. C. Walker stated that the Government by the appointment of inspectors had always done their part towards affording opportunities to pupils of private schools, but the control of other inspectors was in the hands of the Boards. In his opinion those Boards that were not broad-minded enough to allow their inspectors to examine private schools were not carrying out the Education Act. YOUNG PERSONS' PROTECTION. The Young Persons' Protection Bill passed its final stages by 20 to 11. SCHOOL ATTENDANCE. In committee on the School' Attendance Bill, an amendment was made on the Hon. W. C. Walker's motion, that a child be exempted from attendance if the road by which it must travel to school is not sufficiently passable. The bill was reported as amended. ACCIDENTS' COMPENSATION. The Aocidents' Compensation Bill was read a third time and passed, and the Council rose at 4.35.
