Mr. P. Bell

asked the Minister of Education how many proposals have been submitted to him under Section 13 (2) of the Education Act, 1944, with a view to obtaining a grant under Section 1 (2) of the Education Act, 1959; and how many such proposals have been approved for grant.

Sir D. Eccles

Fifty-eight preliminary proposals have been submitted to me. Fifteen have been approved for grant under Section 1 (2) of the Education Act, 1959, two have been rejected, and the remaining forty-one have not yet reached the stage where a decision can be given.
