Garland gave notice to move that in view of the vital importance of meteorology to Imperial navigation, especially for airships, and also to agriculture, the Council urges the Government to take steps (a) to ensure the teaching of meteorology in secondary public schools, and in one at least of the university colleges: (b) to increase the staff and equipment of the meteorological office sufficiently to enable it to provide complete modern service, particularly for aviation and agriculture, and so enable it to devote adequate time to research into special problems of the subject in the Dominion.
