§ Sir E. Graham-Littleasked the Minister of Education what is the total number of school buildings now used for the National Schools and how many of these are permanent buildings, school buildings blacklisted in 1925, pre-fabricated huts, and classrooms extemporised from redundant war buildings, respectively; and how many of the total of buildings now in use accord with the standard required by the Education Act, 1944.
§ Mr. TomlinsonI could not without a disproportionate expenditure of labour say how many buildings are being used for school purposes, or specify their type of construction or the extent to which they comply with the Building Regulations. The number of school buildings on the 1925 Black List still in use is 654.
