Go ndeontar suim Bhreise ná raghaidh thar £680 chun íoctha an Mhuirir a thiocfaidh chun bheith iníoctha i rith na bliana dar críoch an 31adh lá de Mhárta, 1941, chun Costaisí i dtaobh Scoileanna Ceartúcháin agus Soathair, ar a n-áirmhítear Aiteanna Coinneála (8 Edw. 7, c. 67; Uimh. 17 de 1926; agus Uimh. 24 de 1929).
That a Supplementary sum not exceeding £680 be granted to defray the Charge which will come in course of payment during the year ending 31st March, 1941, for Expenses in connection with the Reformatory and Industrial Schools, including Places of Detention (8 Edw. 7, c. 67; No. 17 of 1926; and No. 24 of 1929).
As the Estimate explains, most of the amount sought under this Supplementary Estimate arises by way of additional sums required to meet capitation grants on account of the increased number of youthful offenders under detention both in reformatory and industrial schools. There is also a sum of £150 required to meet the cost of conveying the increased number of youthful offenders to schools. As against the increases under these headings, there is an increase in the Appropriation in respect of receipts for children in industrial schools. The amount received from parents and in respect of allowances under the Widows' and Orphans' Pensions Act is somewhat greater than was anticipated and it is expected that the original Estimate will be exceeded by £250.
Vote agreed to and reported.
