HC Deb 19 November 1970 vol 806 c1421
36. Rear-Admiral Morgan-Giles

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science what submissions she has received concerning her approval for the rebuilding of the Dean Primary School at Alresford; and what reply she has sent.

Mr. van Straubenzee

My right hon. Friend is including a replacement for the Dean County Junior School, New Arlesford, in the Hampshire local authority's design list, 1971–72. The building work can be expected to start in the financial year 1972–73.

Rear-Admiral Morgan-Giles

Will the Minister go full steam ahead with this scheme? Does he realise that the existing school was built in 1887 and that is quite inadequate for the growing community in Alresford?

Mr. van Straubenzee

My hon. and gallant Friend must appreciate that the responsibility now passes to the capable hands of the Hampshire L.E.A. It is on them that he should train his guns.
