With regard to the question of local contribution to be provided in the case of community schools by religious authorities participating in the management of the schools, the position is as stated in my reply to Question No. 17 in the Official Report of 3 June 1980. The contribution from the vocational education committee is 5 per cent.
Funds for the building of schools administered by vocational education committees are made available in accordance with the provisions of the Vocational Education Act, 1930.
