Proceeding contribution from Andrew Turner (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 25 October 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Charities Bill (HL).


Charities Bill [Lords]

The right hon. Gentleman seems to be saying—and I agree with him—that some independent schools do not offer very much. Frankly, a rowing trench near Slough is not contributing greatly to public education. But it seems to be Ministers’ position that the public benefit test is not changed by the Bill, and that that what is being established is existing case law. Is that the right hon. Gentleman’s understanding?
