Proceeding contribution from Baroness Morris of Yardley (Labour) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 14 September 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Education Bill.


Education Bill

It seems that we have two sets of legislation, one for academies and one for everyone else. Such duplication is probably the biggest cause of further legislation than anything else. We duplicate everything. In this case we have one set of legislation for academies and one for the community schools. If we go ahead with this, we shall follow the Government’s normal practice of duplicating legislation at the appropriate point. That seems to me an absolute waste of time, but that is another issue.
