asked the Minister of Education if his attention has been drawn to the overcrowded conditions in the Bourne End Primary School; and if, in view of the large influx of families with young children into the district, he will include the building of a new school in the 1962–63 programme.

I am aware of the difficulties of this school and I am including a new building for the infants in the provisional 1963–64 programme.

While thanking my right hon. Friend for that reply, may I ask him whether he is aware that the amount of building in the area has been increasing rapidly over recent months? Could he not find it possible to bring the new building forward into the 1962–63 programme?

The 1962–63 programme is already full up.
