Proceeding contribution from Baroness Campbell of Surbiton (Crossbench) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 13 July 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill on Academies Bill [HL].
Academies Bill [HL]
My Lords, I also support the amendment of the noble Baroness, Lady Wilkins. I am sorry I was unable to speak at Report. Unfortunately my health stopped me participating. However, this is an extremely important amendment. I met with two young disabled people with support needs last week who both told me that if the funding gets changed in the way they think is going to happen, then the academies cannot deal with their extremely heavy and expensive accessories so they will be compromised. We really have to think again on this one. I, too, am looking forward to hearing what the Minister has to say because thus far we do not feel secure in this Bill’s current form.
