Proceeding contribution from John Hayes (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 22 July 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee of the Whole House (HC) on Academies Bill [Lords].

Academies Bill [Lords]

So that I do not have to say too much when I sum up, perhaps I ought to make it plain that the law is clear that when a child is statemented, and their needs are specified, there is a duty to ensure that those needs are met. That might include provision outside the local authority area. Indeed, I spent a great deal of time in the 1980s, when I was a councillor in Nottinghamshire, fighting for parents, families and children who wanted their needs met outside the county. That does not change as a result of this legislation.
