To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Skills what percentage on-cost is allowed in his Department's calculations for school extensions for (a) architects and (b) other administration and consultation fees. [120452]

The Department does not set fixed levels for architects and other administration and consultation fees. For grant aided projects, we would expect overall fee levels to fall within the range 13–15 per cent. of the building cost, although this would be dependent on the size and complexity of the project.
