§ Captain Pooleasked the President of the Board of Education whether he is aware that Weeford School has no water supply; that water has to be carried 200 yards for all school purposes and that a supply could be laid on at small cost; and will he, in the interest of the health of the scholars, arrange for this to be done forthwith?
§ Mr. ButlerI am aware of the position at this school, but the great demands on building labour and controlled materials make it difficult to comply with the hon. and gallant Member's request. The premises are in general so unsatisfactory that the question of their replacement must arise as soon as circumstances permit.
