§ Mr. Muddasked the Secretary of State for Education and Science what total financial allocation has been approved for the purposes of school building in Cornwall for the year 1972–73; by what amount this sum falls short of the amount sought; and what schemes are to be delayed as a result of the shortfall.
§ Mr. van Straubenzee:The authority proposed major projects at £2.1 million for the 1972–73 programme. The approved programme included eight projects at £1.25 million.

In addition allocations of £218,000 for raising the leaving age and £515,000 for minor works have been authorised for 1972–73.
