HC Deb 05 December 1968 vol 774 c532W
64. Mr. Alison

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science if, in view of the fact that the 1969–70 programme of primary school building for the town of Garforth, near Leeds, approved by his Department is inadequate to meet the needs of the local population of primary school age, he will restore the programme originally put forward by the West Riding County Council.

Miss Bacon

I have authorised the building of all the 720 primary school places which the authority have now proposed for Garforth, 320 as an additional project to start in 1968–69 and the remaining 400 in 1969–70. The authority's original proposal was for 520 places only.
