HC Deb 20 January 1987 vol 108 c507W
80. Mr. Galley

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science what steps he takes to monitor compliance by schools with the provisions of the Education Act 1944 about religious education.

Mr. Dunn

We look to schools themselves and their local education authorities to observe the requirements which the Act lays on them. Where complaints are made to my tight hon. Friend that these requirements are not being met in a particular school they are fully and carefully investigated. Very few such complaints are made each year.
