HC Deb 26 June 1973 vol 858 c321W
Mr. Dempsey

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will publish in the OFFICIAL REPORT details showing the financial amount applied for by each local education authority for 1974–75 primary school building improvement programme and the minor works programme, respectively, and the total school population, respectively, of each authority.

Mr. Gordon Campbell

Education authorities were not invited to put forward proposals for the 1974–75 primary school improvement programme as sufficient information about their needs was already available; and they are not required to put forward proposals for minor works.

Mr. John Smith

I would refer the hon. Member to my reply to the hon. Member for Coatbridge and Airdrie (Mr. Dempsey) on 15th June.
