HC Deb 22 November 1951 vol 494 c549
5. Mr. Norman Dodds

asked the Minister of Education on what date it is proposed to commence the erection of the Erith Mixed Grammar School.

Miss Horsbrugh

I understand that the local education authority expect to be ready to start building next April.

Mr. Pannell

If the Minister is faced with any situation demanding a deferment in this case, will she remember that there have been continual disppointments in the building of this school since 1919 and that it has been the first victim in its county of every economy ramp?

Miss Horsbrugh

I will certainly remember that. Where there have been disappointments in the past, we hope that those who were disappointed will find that they are now getting a better share of things.
