§ 54. Mr. MacArthurasked the Secretary of State for Scotland what reviews have now been made by local authorities in Scotland of the future organisation of education authority fee-paying schools.
§ Mr. MillanRenfrew Education Authority has decided to discontinue its fee-paying secondary schools as soon as its comprehensive scheme of education comes into effect. Glasgow has not yet replied to my right hon. Friend's request that it should review the future of its fee-paying and selective schools. Edinburgh, to which my right hon. Friend 273W also wrote, submitted revised proposals for a particular area involving the retention of these schools and has been asked to reconsider them on the basis that all education authority schools in the area concerned should be reorganised on comprehensive lines.
