From Sally Livesey
The DfES has introduced
signficant restrictions on some of the processes relating to capital funding
for both devolved formula capital and the LCVAP (minor works) programme which
could affect the way you are intending to fund building projects in the current
03/04 financial year. Please see their
web address www.teachernet.gov.uk/voluntaryaidedschools for further
information. The details are in a letter of 1 December from Sally Brooks of the DfES Schools
Capital and Buildings section
Commissioners’ Letter 178.03
1st December 2003
To: Diocesan Schools’
Commissioners
The Capital Programme for VA Schools
Please see attached a
letter from Sally Brooks at the DfES dated 19th November 2003 but
received by us on the 28th November 2003. You may already have received this yourselves but in case you
haven’t we thought it prudent to get it out to you as soon as possible. I will be responding formally to the DfES
midweek.
