Proceeding contribution from Baroness O'Neill of Bengarve (Crossbench) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 15 October 2009. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Apprenticeships, Skills, Children and Learning Bill.

Apprenticeships, Skills, Children and Learning Bill

I have added my name to this amendment. Although in general I believe that it is otiose to require in legislation that bodies are efficient, effective or timely in their actions, it is not entirely so in this case because, as has been explained by other noble Lords, the downside for individual pupils is great in the case of a failure of timeliness. I hope that the Minister might look favourably on the specification that the requirement should be timely.
