HC Deb 22 November 1951 vol 494 c550
27. Mr. T. W. Jones

asked the Minister of Education what steps she proposes to take to ensure that technical education will be available for those pupils in North Wales schools not within daily travelling distance to Wrexham and Flint.

Miss Horsbrugh

For children of school age technical education is provided within the secondary schools of North Wales. As regards technical education for those who have left school, local education authorities have been asked to submit their proposals for the further education building programme for 1953–57. I understand that these will involve some joint day provision amongst local education authorities in North-West Wales, together with boarding provision for the whole area in North-East Wales, but I cannot say at this stage what priority may be given to these projects.
