Question to the Department for Education:

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, which of her Department's capital investment programmes have involved expenditure in Blackpool North and Cleveleys constituency since 2010.

Since April 2010 schools in Blackpool North and Cleveleys constituency have been directly allocated funding to support capital investment through the following programmes:

• Priority Schools Building Programme

• Free Schools

• Building Schools for the Future

• Academies Capital Maintenance Fund

• Demographic Growth Capital Fund

• Building Condition Improvement Fund

• Locally Co-ordinated Voluntary Aided Programme

• Devolved Formula Capital

In addition to the above, the Department for Education also allocates much of its available capital funding at a local authority level so that capital investment decisions can be made according to local priorities. These funds could be used by Blackpool and Lancashire local authorities to support capital investment in the Blackpool North and Cleveleys constituency. These capital programmes include: Basic Need, Local Authority Capital Maintenance, and Universal Infant Free School Meals.
