HC Deb 15 November 1955 vol 546 c29W
Mr. Hector Hughes

asked the Minister of Education how many schools in Britain under his jurisdiction have facilities for the teaching and practice of swimming.

Mr. Vosper

Most of the maintained schools at which swimming is taught rely on the use of public or privately-owned swimming baths. I would not feel justified in asking local education authorities for the special return which an exact answer to the hon. and learned Member's question would require.
