HC Deb 09 July 1964 vol 698 cc137-8W
Mr. Boyden

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science if he will publish in the OFFICIAL REPORT an analysis of his survey into unsatisfactory dining conditions in new schools, together with the actions taken to remedy these unsatisfactory conditions.

Mr. Hogg

For reasons of space it is not practicable to publish in the OFFICIAL REPORT an analysis of my survey of unsatisfactory dining conditions in new schools. I am, however, placing in the Library of the House a copy of the summary of the findings of the survey, together with a copy of a circular letter of 20th May, 1964, which brought these findings to the attention of local education authorities. This letter also contains practical suggestions, relating mainly to the planning of dining accommodation, which I hope will help to prevent unsatisfactory dining conditions from occurring in new schools in future.
