“Regeneration of schools and hospitals: register of serious disrepair
(1) Within one month of the day on which this Act is passed the Secretary of State must establish a register of schools and hospitals in England in serious disrepair.
(2) The register must comprise a list of—
(a) schools that have been partially or fully closed on a temporary or permanent basis because one or more school building was deemed unsafe for staff or pupils,
(b) schools that have classrooms or buildings on site that are closed due to disrepair and details of those classrooms or buildings,
(c) schools that require major rebuilding or refurbishment,
(d) hospitals that have been partially or fully closed on a temporary or permanent basis because one or more hospital building was deemed unsafe for staff or patients,
(e) hospitals that have rooms, wards or buildings on site that are closed due to disrepair and details of those rooms, wards or buildings, and
(f) hospitals that require major rebuilding or refurbishment.
(3) The register must be reviewed every three months to ensure it contains up-to-date information.”
Member’s explanatory statement
This amendment would require the Government to keep a register of schools and hospitals in serious disrepair, and ensure the register is regularly updated.
