HC Deb 17 July 1958 vol 591 c119W
72. Mr. Bonham Carter

asked the Minister of Education why the building programme of the Devon County Education Committee for 1959–60 has been cut from £700,000 to £165,000; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Geoffrey Lloyd

Because I cannot at present authorise school building projects designed exclusively for reorganisation, the replacement of old schools, or for housing children who can be accommodated elsewhere.
