HC Deb 18 June 1964 vol 696 cc213-4W
58. Mr. Awbery

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science how many projects were requested by the Bristol Education Committee for the next triennial period; how many have been sanctioned; what steps are being taken to deal with the remainder; and why he refused them, in view of the need for educational development in the city.

Mr. Hogg

24 projects were proposed and seven have so far been approved. The remainder will be considered again when the full proposals for 1967–68 are received. The present programme represents a reasonable share of the available resources in the light of national needs and priorities.
