HC Deb 13 March 2002 vol 381 c1135W
Mr. Andrew Turner

To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Skills whether the Connexions Service retains information relating to young people's sexual orientation. [42134]

Mr. Ivan Lewis

[holding answer 11 March 2002]: Information relating to a young person's sexual orientation would not normally be retained. The young person might raise the subject and, in this case, the information would be recorded and retained only if the young person and the personal adviser agreed that this would be appropriate.
