To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Science what representations he has received from local education authorities seeking approval for urgent building work for schools.
Mr. Fallon
We have received representations from six local education authorities about urgent building work at schools since our announcement last December of the distribution of annual capital guidelines to LEAs and the voluntary-aided grant allocations for 1992–93.It is for LEAs to ensure that their schools are in a satisfactory condition. They do not need our approval to undertake building work they judge necessary.
