Proceeding contribution from Pat McFadden (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 11 November 2009. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Skills for Growth.


Skills for Growth

I take exception to Opposition Members attacking our record on capital spending in further education. Let me give the hon. Gentleman the facts: 700 projects in 300 colleges worth £2.7 billion in expenditure. Contrast that with the amount in the last year that his party was in power: no projects, no colleges, not a single penny.
