Mr. Freemanasked the Secretary of State for Education and Science if he will make a statement about the report of Her Majesty's Inspectorate on the effects of local authority expenditure policies on the education service in England in 1982.
Sir Keith JosephThe HMI report on the observed effects of local authority expenditure policies on the education service in England is published today. Copies are available in the Vote Office. I believe that local education authorities will wish to take it into account, as the Government intend to do for their part, in considering expenditure and the use of resources.
