HC Deb 07 February 1929 vol 224 c1952W
Mr. MORGAN JONES

asked the President of the Board of Education at what date the Regulation of the Board was issued which requires that the public elementary school in receipt of a grant shall be provided with an adequate supply of drinking water; and whether it is proposed to put those school? on the black list which have not yet complied with the Board's Regulation in this matter?

Lord E. PERCY

It was in 1903 that the Board's Building Regulations first provided that new schools should have a supply of drinking water. As regards the latter part of the question, I may refer the hon. Member to the reply which I gave yesterday to the hon. Member for West Rhondda (Mr. John), and of which I am sending him a copy.

Forward to
