Proceeding contribution from Baroness Verma (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 30 October 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill on Education and Skills Bill.

Education and Skills Bill

My Lords, I welcome the genuine concern that the noble Lord, Lord Avebury, showed in moving his amendment. I assure him that the same concern is felt by those of us on these Benches: that all children should receive the high-quality education that is their right. Because all children should receive that education, it is unnecessary to establish a separate Traveller education service. It is the duty of local education authorities to educate all children for whom they are responsible, regardless of their background.
