§ Mr. Clifton-BrownTo ask the Secretary of State for Education and Employment if she will assist the Purcell school development appeal. [20876]
§ Mrs. GillanWe have decided to make a capital grant of £250,000 towards the Purcell school development appeal. This will encourage private donors also to contribute, and will enable the school to secure the larger premises needed to enhance the specialist education it provides for children with exceptional musical talents. Subject to parliamentary approval of the necessary grant regulations, the payment will be made within the existing cash limit for class x vote 1 for 1995–96.
