HC Deb 23 January 1947 vol 432 c85W
108. Mr. Pickthorn

asked the Minister of Education the average cost of school-building for each child, in the case of infants' schools, primary, modern and other schools.

Miss Wilkinson

The amount of building which it has so far been possible to put in hand since the war is insufficient to enable reliable figures of cost to be given. It may, however, be generally assumed that the average cost per place is at present at least double the average prewar cost per place.
