Proceeding contribution from Ed Balls (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 22 July 2008. It occurred during Ministerial statement on SATs Testing.
SATs Testing
I have said that I very much regret what has happened, and I have explained clearly that the advice to me is that I should not comment on anything that would prejudice responsibility. That is the legal advice that I have been given. I have made it clear that I am accountable, but the responsibility lies with the QCA and with ETS Europe. I do not understand why the hon. Gentleman is trying to make comments that would shift that responsibility.
