Proceeding contribution from Tim Loughton (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]

To respond to the point made by the hon. Member for Islington North (Jeremy Corbyn), there are many areas of schools business where the final decision will remain with the Secretary of State, and that is proper, but remember that the Secretary of State needs to have regard not just to the future and the financial viability of academies, but to the sustainability of other schools, which will continue to be administered through local education authorities. The Secretary of State is interested not just in academies, but in all schools.
