§ Mr. LawsTo ask the Secretary of State for Education and Skills how many temporary classrooms have been in use in Somerset in each of the last five years; and if she will make a statement [1386]
§ Mr. TimmsWe do not have information on Somerset's temporary buildings at this level of detail. This information may be available from the local education authority.
In connection with the Department's arrangements for appraising asset management plans, we are, however, planning to publish later this year analyses of authorities' premises information for benchmarking purposes. These should include some information on temporary accommodation, although not on a year-by-year basis.
