HC Deb 01 November 1965 vol 718 c125W
Mr. Geoffrey Lloyd

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science, whether, in view of the special problems of the area, youth service projects in Birmingham will be excepted from the Government's general decision to defer for six months educational building projects.

Mr. Denis Howell

No. All except one of the projects which are now ready to start were programmed in 1963–64 or 1964–65, and have been held up more by delays in planning than by the Government's measures.
