Refusal To Attend Meeting Criticised
(New Zealand Press Association)
AUCKLAND, March 11
A refusal by the Minister of Education (Mr Kinsella) to attend last night’s quarterly meeting of the Auckland School Committees’ Association has been criticised by the association’s executive.
The meeting was told that the Minister first undertook last May to attend a meeting of the association, but had expressed regret from time to time in declining successive invitations.
The president (Mr V. J. Clarke), said the Minister had said in November that he had “pencilled in” the March meeting. Now he had advised thait he could not attend a meeting of the Auckland association without becoming obliged to attend the meetings of all other associations. That would' put him in a difficult position. “So much has been lost and so much could have been achieved, both politically and
educationally,” said Mr Clarke. “The Minister was actually in Auckland on Tuesday as Minister of Rehabilitation.”
