HC Deb 08 April 1935 vol 300 c798
50. Major LEIGHTON

asked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Board of Education whether any decision has been come to with regard to the building of a new school at Ellesmere, Shropshire; and, if not, what is the present situation?

The PARLIAMENTARY SECRETARY to the BOARD of EDUCATION (Mr. Ramsbotharn)

The statutory period for the publication of notice of the proposal in question has only just expired, and no decision upon it has yet been reached. It may be desirable to hold a public inquiry before coming to a decision.

Major LEIGHTON

May I ask whether, in coming to a decision, the Minister will bear in mind that the inhabitants are very anxious to have some public inquiry?
