§ 134. Dr. Kingasked the Minister of Education whether she is aware that the Somerset local education authority has re-affirmed its county council's decision to close 80 per cent. of its nursery schools; and what action she proposes to take.
§ Mr. PickthornYes. Since my right hon. Friend was not satisfied with the explanation which the authority gave her for their action she required them to furnish her with a detailed statement of the position at each of the schools and 95W classes which they had closed. This information she received recently and is at present considering.
