Proceeding contribution from Baroness Brinton (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 20 July 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Education Bill.
Education Bill
My Lords, the noble Lord, Lord Knight, and the noble Baroness, Lady Jones, referred to how the word ““representative”” has crept into the discussion. As far as I can see—I would be grateful if the Minister could confirm this—there is no intention that anyone elected, appointed or nominated to a governing body should be a representative of a particular group. They are nominated by a group but their main function is as a member of the governing body, and that should remain the priority.
