Proceeding contribution from Ed Balls (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 10 July 2007. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Children, Schools and Families.


Children, Schools and Families

We will need to look at that in detail, but we intend to give schools and parents power to decide how the money is spent, and to ensure that young people who receive free school meals or qualify on the basis of the deprivation statistics have a personal entitlement to take up extended school opportunities. That is our intention, but we will need to work out the funding arrangements.
