HC Deb 18 April 1978 vol 948 c70W
16. Mr. Hal Miller

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science what time she has set for the conclusion of consultations with local education authorities on the report of Local Authorities' Management Services and Computer Committee's report on school transport; and if she will make a statement.

Miss Margaret Jackson

No time limit has been set at this stage. The LAMSAC report is purely a technical study and we are now engaged in preparing new proposals for consultation. I share the hon. Member's desire to make progress as quickly as possible, but there must be adequate time for consideration and discussion by those concerned.
