HC Deb 30 March 1994 vol 240 c800W
Mr. Redmond

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what major building projects since 1989, valued at over £1 million are being, or have been wholly or partly financed in(a) Doncaster, (b) Barnsley, (c) Rotherham and (d) Wakefield by his Department; and what was the cost of each project to his Department.

Mr. Forth

There have been no major building projects at voluntary aided and special agreement schools since 1989, valued at over £1 million financed by this Department in any of the local education authorities cited above. The Department does not control the funding of projects at individual county and voluntary controlled schools. It is for authorities to decide their own capital expenditure priorities and to make the best use of the resources available to them.
