asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science what progress is being made with the inquiry into mathematics set up by his predecessor following the recommendation of the Expenditure Committee.

Mr. Mark Carlisle

The committee of inquiry into the teaching of mathematics in schools is at present actively collecting and examining evidence. I look forward to receiving its report as soon as it has reached its conclusions.
