answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 16/10/2018 answer text <p>In March 2016, the then Secretary of State announced an immediate cash boost of £43m to fund the construction of a range of shared education campuses and integrated school projects. That announcement also included the provision of support to advance in planning 17 additional Shared Education, primary and post primary integrated education projects. It was made clear at the time of this announcement that funding for the construction of these and other projects would be awarded in line with existing processes and following the necessary approvals. A second tranche of Fresh Start Agreement funding that would advance a number of these projects to construction is currently under consideration and I hope the Secretary of State will be in a position to make a further announcement that will provide additional information on our funding commitment in due course.</p> answering member constituency North West Cambridgeshire answering member printed Mr Shailesh Vara question first answered 16/10/2018 12:11:00 answering member 1496 label Biography information for Shailesh Vara
