HL Deb 13 January 1981 vol 416 c35WA
Lord Harris of Greenwich

asked Her Majesty's Government:

Whether they will expedite their decision on the proposal before them regarding Pinner Sixth Form College, bearing in mind that recruitment for sixth form education in Harrow for 1981 has already begun and many potential candidates are becoming anxious that the provision of places will fail to meet the demand.

Baroness Young

My right honourable friend the Secretary of State for Education and Science is carefully considering the proposal by the London Borough of Harrow Council to cease to maintain Pinner Sixth Form College, together with the objections which have been received. He is aware of the need for an early decision and there will be no unnecessary delay.
