Proceeding contribution from Lord Gove (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 8 February 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on Education Bill.


Education Bill

I think throwing out the baby with the bathwater would be very poor practice in any Sure Start children's centre or any other early years setting. I agree with the hon. Gentleman that Sure Start children's centres can do a fantastic job, which is one reason why we are providing additional support, why the Department of Health is investing in additional health visitors and why the early intervention grant will ensure that there is sufficient money for local authorities to continue to discharge their statutory responsibility.
