asked the Minister for Education if he will state the total amount of salary, bonus, and other special grants which has been withheld from the teachers who were on strike; and the amount of capitation grant, based on last year's figures of attendance, which would have been payable on account of the months April to October, 1946, inclusive, to those principal teachers who were on strike during that period.

As the answers to the Deputy's questions will require a considerable amount of calculation and as the staff of my Department are busily engaged in the preparation and issue of orders in payment of salaries due to teachers for service during the month of October, I regret that it will not be possible for me to supply the information required before this day week.
