Proceeding contribution from Baroness Perry of Southwark (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 23 June 2010. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bill on Academies Bill [HL].
Academies Bill [HL]
I will speak briefly. I hope that the Minister will be able to reassure the right Reverend Prelate the Bishop of Bath and Wells on the subject of free schools. As I understand it, the original academies programme, instigated by the noble Lord, Lord Adonis, allowed academies to be set up which were faith schools, and many have been. I do not think that free schools alter that position in any way and I hope that my noble friend can reassure us on that point.
