Such amount may be recovered by the Secretary for Education, on behalt of the Crown, or may be deducted from any subsi 3y then or thereaiter payable to the board. When the board has paid tne amount it will have a right to sue the person on whose behalf the payment was made by the Crown. Licenses for foster-homes are to continue in force until revoked.
