GOVERNMENT NOTIFICATION.
The following letter, with enclosure, from the Inspector of Schools, reporting the result of the examination of the Grant-in-Aid Schools, is published for general information.
By Command,
FREDERICK STEWART,
Colonial Secretary's Office,
Acting Colonial Secretary.
Hongkong, 4th February, 1881.
[No. 3.]
INSPECTORATE OF SCHOOLS,
HONGKONG, 27th January, 1881.
SIR—I have the honour to forward under this enclosure a tabulated summary of the grants earned by the various Grant-in-aid Schools, amounting to $7,319.77, and, owing to the approach of the Chinese New Year, I beg to recommend that the money be paid at once.
The Estimates for 1881 provide only the sum of $6,900 for the purpose; so that there is an excess of $419.77, which is caused by the increased number of the Schools now under the Grant-in-aid System.
I reserve all remarks as regards details of the working of the Grant-in-aid Scheme during the past year for my Annual Report, and have the honour to be,
Sir,
Your most obedient servant,
E. J. EITEL,
Inspector of Schools.
The Honourable F. STEWART,
Acting Colonial Secretary.
