HC Deb 30 April 1925 vol 183 c341W
Colonel DAY

asked the President of the Board of Education whether, in view of the widespread desire for increased secondary school facilities in different parts of the country, he will favourably consider any applications he may receive from education authorities for loans for new buildings, or for additions to, or the adaptation of existing buildings, with a view to the provision of such money as may be needed on easy and favourable terms?

Lord E. PERCY

Applications by local authorities for sanction to raise loans are addressed to the Ministry of Health, not to my Department, but I am certainly prepared to recommend the Ministry, in suitable cases, to sanction loans for the purpose to which the hon. and gallant Member refers.
