Mr. Gordon Marsden: To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Skills how many child care places have been created in Blackpool, South since 1997. [173066]

Margaret Hodge: The Department is unable to provide details of child care places for Blackpool, South. However, from April 1999 to March 2004 Blackpool local authority created 3,060 new child care places helping some 5,505 children. This shows an increase in the stock of child care places, taking into account turnover, of 2,149 helping some 3,899 children.

Mr. Hurst: To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Skills how much was spent on capital projects in schools in (a) the County of Essex in each year from 1980 to 1997 and (b) the County of Essex and the unitary authorities of Southend-on-Sea and Thurrock in each year from 1998 to 2003. [173322]

Mr. Miliband: The majority of capital funding is now allocated to local authorities and schools by needs-related formulae. Authorities invest according to priorities agreed in their asset management plans. The following table shows total capital allocations to Essex, Southend-on-Sea and Thurrock local education authorities (LEA) since 1996–97. We do not hold details of the capital allocation figures per authority for periods before 1996–97.
