For each and every school in the ACT what (a) is the capacity; (b) is the current enrolment and (c) are the projected enrolments for (i) 1996; (ii) 1997 and (iii) 1998.

MR STEFANIAK - the answer to Ms McRae's question is:

Information on capacity, current enrolments and projected enrolments from the ACT Department of Education and Training and Children's, Youth and Family Services Bureau publication "Projected Enrolments 1996 to 2000" isattached: Primary Schools (Attachment A), High Schools (Attachment B), and Colleges (Attachment C). The attachments show the February 1995 enrolment and the projected February enrolment to the year 2000. A government schools census will be conducted in February 1996 and an updated five year projection document will be released in July 1996.

The school capacity figures do not account for space currently occupied either by tenants or other ACT Department of Education and Training occupants. Attachment D, page 3 of the publication mentioned above, contains more information on capacity calculations.
