HC Deb 22 November 1945 vol 416 c738W
Mr. Molson

asked the Minister of Education when the rooms requisitioned by the Ministry of Health as a first aid centre in the Spring Bank Council School, New Mills, will be reinstated, so as to be reasonably convenient and available for educational purposes.

Miss Wilkinson

The delay in putting in hand the work of reinstatement of the rooms at the Spring Bank Council School, New Mills, has been due to difficulty experienced by the local education authority in discovering a contractor willing to tender for the work. With the help of the Ministry of Works, the names of five such contractors have now been notified to the local education authority, and I hope that this will enable the work to be undertaken quickly so that the accommodation affected may soon be available again for educational purposes.
