Mr. Edward M. Taylor

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland what was the total capital value of secondary schools on which construction started in 1968; what were the comparable figures in 1964; and what percentage increase this represents at constant prices.

Mr. Ross

The total value of starts on secondary school projects was £24.5 million in 1968 and £13 million in 1964. This represents a 63 per cent. increase at 1964 prices.
