§ 111. Colonel Stoddart-Scottasked the Minister of Education when the canteen at Fewston School, near Otley, was completed; why it has not been possible to use it; how far the difficulties were not realised before permission to build was 154W obtained; and when this building will be available for use.
§ Mr. TomlinsonThe building was completed last January, but opening has been delayed because an increased water supply has been refused. As the school had an adequate supply and the canteen was built on adjoining land leased for this purpose from the Leeds Corporation Water Undertaking, the local education authority saw no reason to expect any difficulty. Negotiations are continuing and meanwhile the canteen will open this month with a temporary water supply brought by transport.
