asked the Minister of Education how many new primary and secondary schools have been built in each of the counties of Wales since August, 1945.

The only new school buildings in Wales which have been finished since August, 1945, are one secondary school and three temporary primary schools in Cardiff. This does not, however, give a complete picture, because six secondary schools and 16 primary schools are under construction, and some will shortly be ready for occupation. In addition, a number of existing schools have been, and are being, extended.
