Proceeding contribution from Graham Stuart (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 11 May 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on Education Bill.


Education Bill

The hon. Gentleman is incorrect on the central point. Although the report did not take the same form as it would have done if I had written it alone, the central point about the need for registration and licensing of families that want to educate their own children was rejected by the Select Committee—it was Labour-dominated and chaired so ably by him. That point was rejected, and the report said no to the central recommendation of Badman. The previous Government still pursued that recommendation, but it was—eventually and rightly—thrown out by Parliament before the last election.
