Proceeding contribution from David Ward (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Monday, 12 December 2011. It occurred during Debate on Immigration.


Immigration

The hon. Gentleman has made two references to education and attainment in schools, about which I know something. There is no evidence that indigenous children for whom English is the first language suffer as a result of the presence of children with other first languages. The evidence to support that view is just not there.
