HC Deb 22 October 1991 vol 196 c570W
Mr. Murphy

To ask the Secretary of State for Wales how much extra capital funding for the repair and replacement of old school buildings in Wales he intends to provide in the current and forthcoming financial years.

Sir Wyn Roberts

Our plans for 1991–92 were announced last December. Assumed gross provision for education, at £220.8 million represented a 24 per cent. increase over the previous financial year. I expect the decision regarding the level and distribution of capital resources to local authorities for 1992–93 to be made known towards the end of November 1991.
