HC Deb 03 May 1971 vol 816 cc287-8W
Mr. Stallard

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science in view of the effects that the cut-back on the allocation of money for the rebuilding of the Torriano infants school in Kentish Town is having on the building, and on the morale of the teaching staff, if she will reconsider her decision not to include the covered walkways in the rebuilding plans.

Mr. van Straubenzee

There has been no cut-back in the allocation by the Department. The project was approved at a cost on tender about £12,000 in excess of the figure originally programmed. The plans submitted by the local education authority which have been approved show future outdoor covered play spaces.
