HC Deb 29 May 1930 vol 239 cc1472-3
48. Sir N. GRATTAN-DOYLE

asked the President of the Board of Education what are the estimated numbers of boys and girls for whom accommodation will have to be provided in public elementary schools in England and Wales for each of the years from 1931 to 1940?

Sir C. TREVELYAN

I am sending the hon. Member a copy of an answer which I gave, on the 29th January last, to the hon. Member for Hammersmith North (Mr. J. Gardner), which gives the estimated numbers up to the year 1939. The estimate for 1940 is 5,120,000.

Sir N. GRATTAN-DOYLE

The right hon. Gentleman has given me an answer of which I am already aware, and can he add anything to it?

Sir C. TREVELYAN

I have nothing to add.
