HC Deb 02 May 1963 vol 676 cc1294-5
19. Mr. Fitch

asked the Minister of Education the total amount of money for building projects for Youth Service work applied for by local education authorities in 1962–63; and what was the total value of the projects approved by him.

Sir E. Boyle

The figures are £7.9 million and £3.6 million, respectively.

Mr. Denis Howell

There is a lot of interest in the post-Albemarle era, but, although quite a lot has been going on, neither the House nor the country has been told about it. What steps is the Minister taking to give us information about what his Ministry is doing following the Albemarle Report?

Sir E. Boyle

If the Opposition care to put the subject down for, say, a half Supply Day, that would be extremely helpful, I think. Alternatively, any hon. Gentleman interested in the subject might care to raise the matter on private Member's day. That is by far the most convenient way.
