Proceeding contribution from Baroness Morris of Bolton (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 23 January 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Further Education and Training Bill [HL].

Further Education and Training Bill [HL]

In drawing together the complexities that the noble Lord, Lord Sutherland, who is no longer in his place, and other noble Lords mentioned in the last debate on the importance of London and its economy, it will be vital that the new board consults widely and not only with the assembly, as in the amendment tabled by the noble Baroness, Lady Hamwee. Many who welcome the establishment of the board, including the City of London, have reservations about how neighbouring boroughs in the centre of London will collaborate under the Mayor’s planned approach, and I wonder whether the Minister could comment.
