§ Mr. DafisTo ask the Secretary of State for Wales if he will make it his policy to launch a review of further education provision for students with learning difficulties and physical disabilities in Wales.
§ Sir Wyn RobertsFurther education is currently a matter for the local education authorities. On 1 April, the Further Education Funding Council for Wales assumes responsibility for planning and funding the sector. In the Secretary of State's guidance letter of 27 May 1992 to the chairman of the funding council he asked that the council ensures that adequate arrangements are in place for assessing the needs of students with learning difficulties and disabilities and for identifying appropriate provision within further education.
