HC Deb 03 November 1966 vol 735 c138W
35. Mr. van Straubenzee

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science, in the light of recent official announcements of Government policy, whether he will make a statement on his intention to introduce legislation to compel the introduction of comprehensive schooling by local education authorities.

Mr. Crosland

On present evidence I do not foresee the need for legislation in this matter.
