Proceeding contribution from Lord Rix (Crossbench) 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]
My Lords, I shall speak also to Amendment 75 in my name. The possibility of charging is apparent in this clause. The Minister will be aware that children with SEN have additional needs that sometimes require additional resources. It is the responsibility of the school and local authority to meet those needs. I would be extremely concerned if there were moves to charge parents for special education provision. I do not believe that it is the intention of the legislation to charge pupils with SEN, but I would welcome clarification on this point.
