Proceeding contribution from Oliver Heald (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 14 January 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill on Education and Skills Bill.


Education and Skills Bill

It is my understanding that the Liberal Democrats' position is that adulthood should start at 16—that is, that the ages for various things should be rationalised at that age. Does that thinking underpin the hon. Gentleman's argument, or is he developing it on the basis of the current age for adulthood of 18?
