HC Deb 12 March 1991 vol 187 c442W
22. Mr. Barry Field

To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Science what plans he has to extend the legislation for grant-maintained schools to include colleges of further education.

Mr. Eggar

The Education Reform Act 1988 introduced a number of significant changes in the funding, governance and management of colleges. My right hon. and learned Friend is watching carefully to see how those changes work out in practice. No possibility has been ruled out for the future.
