HC Deb 30 May 1946 vol 423 cc213-4W
Sir E. Graham-Little

asked the Minister of Education if she is aware that prefabricated war huts are unsuitable as class rooms in the national schools; how many schools have, up to date, been supplied from this source; and how many local authorities have declined to accept such provision.

Miss Wilkinson

If the hon. Member is referring to the huts now being supplied to the schools, the answer to the first part of the question is in the negative. The number of schools supplied with huts for use as classrooms is about 800. No local education authority has refused to accept such provision.
