Proceeding contribution from Ed Balls (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

The hon. Gentleman began his speech by saying that he wanted to get down to the truth of the issue. Now, once again, we have been confronted by scripted evasion. I am being absolutely clear: we will guarantee a school, college or apprenticeship place for every 16-year-old this September. The hon. Gentleman has a chance to say—in this House, in public—and confirm that he would guarantee the necessary funds. I have guaranteed them; will he match that guarantee?
