§ Mr. CabornTo ask the Secretary of State for Education and Science (1) what is the 1990–91 North Yorkshire education authority capital budget for furnishings and equipment in North Yorkshire schools;
(2) what is the 1990–91 North Yorkshire education authority capital budget for building work in North Yorkshire schools.
§ Mr. FallonNorth Yorkshire local education authority received annual capital guidelines in 1990–91 for education expenditure on schools and further and higher education of £4–1 million. This represents no more than the minimum level of suggested capital spending on education. LEAs are free to spend whatever they think fit from whatever overall resources are available to them for capital spending. I understand that North Yorkshire LEA's capital budget for 1990–91 is in the region of £5 million.
