Proceeding contribution from Greg Knight (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 14 November 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on Education Bill.


Education Bill

I am most grateful to the Minister, who is being very generous in giving way. He spoke earlier about taking us on a journey, and even earlier he quoted Rab Butler. May I remind him of what Rab Butler said about journeys—that it is best to get off the train before it hits the buffers? With the light-touch approach that the Minister is suggesting, is there not a danger that some colleges may move assets overseas, to the detriment of the British taxpayer?
