Business question from Joan Walley (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 28 October 2010. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.


Business of the House

On 7 July, the Secretary of State for Education told me that"““Stoke-on-Trent, as a local authority that has reached financial close, will see all the schools under Building Schools for the Future rebuilt or refurbished.””—[Official Report, 7 July 2010; Vol. 513, c. 490.]" Given the points of order in the House last Monday, and the media speculation that Building Schools for the Future might be affected by the pupil premium, will the Leader of the House arrange for an urgent debate on the funding for BSF, so that people in constituencies all across the country, including Stoke-on-Trent, can have some certainty about the multi-million pound programme for schools investment on which they are now negotiating?
