HC Deb 29 October 1975 vol 898 cc501-2W
Mr. Spearing

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science what levels of capitation he has fixed for expendable materials for primary and secondary schools, respectively; and if he will make a statement on the considerations that led him to fix these levels.

Miss Joan Lestor

None. The scope and magnitude of school capitation allowances are entirely for local education authorities to determine.
