HC Deb 05 February 1974 vol 868 c290W
Mr. Joel Barnett

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science if she will make a statement as to the effect on towns in the Heywood and Royton constituency of the cuts in education referred to in the statement by the Chancellor of the Exchequer on 17th December.

Mr. Raison

Two major projects, to replace St. Mary's RC Primary School, Littleborough and St. James' CE Primary School, Royton, will be deferred until after July 1975. The Lancashire local education authority is responsible for deciding which projects should be carried out within its minor works allocations and for deciding how the necessary savings in recurrent expenditure should be made.
