HC Deb 14 July 1955 vol 543 c199W
Dr. King

asked the Minister of Education the total value of minor projects included in the 1954–55 and 1955–56 school building programmes, respectively.

Sir D. Eccles

The value of minor projects on primary and secondary schools approved during the financial year 1954–55 was £6,264,000. I cannot forecast the corresponding figure for the current year, since I do not now impose a limit on the total amount of this type of work which local education authorities may undertake.
