HC Deb 30 November 1976 vol 921 cc116-7W
Mr. Spearing

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science what progress has been made in respect of R/263/76 and R/2085/75 concerning an action programme for education and education of immigrant workers' children as discussed in the House on 10th June last; and if she will now reconsider the first part of the reply of 17th November, Official Report, column 606.

Mr. Oakes

Some progress has been made on most parts of the Action Programme set out in the Resolution of 9th February 1976 (R/263/76). The Education Ministers of the Nine met on 29th November to take stock of developments and to consider the report and the draft Resolution to which I referred in my answer of 8th November to a Question by my hon. Friend—[Vol. 919,c. 22]—Consideration of an instrument on the education of migrant workers' children (R/2085/75) is continuing and will be on the agenda of a meeting of the Council (Social Affairs) on 9th December.

No proposals for regulations on education have been made.
