Proceeding contribution from Ed Balls (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 23 February 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill on Apprenticeships, Skills, Children and Learning Bill.

Apprenticeships, Skills, Children and Learning Bill

The last time we discussed these matters, the Opposition's position was that although they would protect the schools budget in 2009-10, they would cut the non-schools budget by £200 million. Does the Conservative spokesman's statement suggest that he has an exemption from next year's cuts, and has the shadow Department for Innovation, Universities and Skills team been left to pick up the tab?
