HC Deb 01 March 1972 vol 832 c117W
66. Mr. Edward Taylor

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland if, before approving proposals for educational reorganisation, he will take steps to ensure that local authorities have had adequate consultation with parents of children affected by proposals to reorganise schools in their areas.

Mr. Gordon Campbell

It was made clear in Circular No. 760 that I would expect the authority concerned, before submitting proposals for reorganisation to me, to consult both the teachers in the schools concerned and the parents of the pupils.
