New Secondary Shoot, Larkhall

Mr. Alexander Wilson
asked the Secretary of State for Scotland when the proposed new secondary school to be built at Robert Smillie Park, Larkhall, will be ready; how many school places will be provided there; and what is the estimated cost of the project.

Mr. Gordon Campbell
Lanarkshire Education Authority hope to complete the first phase of this project by the end of 1972. This will provide some 1,400 places and is estimated to cost £1 million. Proposals for the second phase have still to be submitted.
