Proceeding contribution from Tom Levitt (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 11 January 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill on Children, Schools and Families Bill.

Children, Schools and Families Bill

I am grateful to my right hon. Friend for giving way. I am not opposed to any school having charitable status, whether it be independent, state, academy or whatever—the recent debate about public benefit and charities has been helpful in that respect—but why is he bringing back the status of exempt charities for academies, especially as the Charities Act 2006 effectively brought that status to an end?
