HC Deb 22 February 1940 vol 357 cc1573-4W
Mr. E. J. Williams

asked the Parliamentary Secretary to the Board of Education what steps are being taken to provide full-time education for the elementary school children of Bridgend, Glamorganshire?

Mr. Lindsay

The double-shift arrangements at Bridgend are due to the use of public elementary school premises for Civil Defence purposes. In accordance with the recent statement of policy consultations are now proceeding in order to secure release of these premises. I will let my hon. Friend know immediately a decision is reached.
