Proceeding contribution from Lord Willis of Knaresborough (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Monday, 4 July 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Education Bill.
Education Bill
I apologise if I am being incredibly stupid, but the 2002 Act gives the Secretary of State the right to grant to any school in England earned autonomy and the power to innovate. If you have the power to innovate, surely that takes precedence over any legislation, otherwise—I say with due respect—the 2002 Act becomes meaningless.
