Proceeding contribution from Lord Sutherland of Houndwood (Crossbench) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 13 July 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Education Bill.


Education Bill

My Lords, I support the remarks that have just been made. Ofqual is in its early stages; it has set off on what is essentially a new path with new powers given on the Floor of this House, among other places. It is important that Ofqual has the powers and flexibility to maintain a reputation that will be essential if standards are to be properly observed in this country.
