Proceeding contribution from Lord Barwell (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 19 July 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill on Academies Bill [Lords].


Academies Bill [Lords]

The hon. Lady is repeating the line that the shadow Secretary of State started with, which is that the Bill is a perversion of Labour's academy policy. However, the then Prime Minister Tony Blair said on 24 October 2005:"““We want every school to be able quickly and easily to become a self-governing independent…school.””" How is that inconsistent with the Bill?
