Proceeding contribution from Lord Coaker (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 8 April 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill on Children, Schools and Families Bill.


Children, Schools and Families Bill

The hon. Gentleman always asks legitimate questions. As Parliament has not yet dissolved, even at this late stage it would be courteous to look into that, and I shall do so after the debate and write to him. He may not get the answer he wants, but I will write with an explanation in any case, as it would be discourteous not to do so. We have also had to withdraw provisions on personal, social and health education because Opposition Members insisted on retaining a parental right of withdrawal up to the age of 16 in respect of sex and relationships education.
