HC Deb 03 July 1979 vol 969 c511W
Dr. Roger Thomas

asked the Secretary of State for Wales if he will consider, in the light of widespread poor and inadequate toilet provision in many primary schools, and fully recognising that health factors in these schools be given their rightful importance, that the provision of indoor toilets should be classified as revenue and not capital expenditure.

Mr. Michael Roberts

It is for the education authority to decide whether, in any particular case, expenditure on the provision of indoor toilets should be treated as revenue rather than capital expenditure.
