HC Deb 15 May 1984 vol 60 cc131-2W
12. Mr. Wigley

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science if he is satisfied with the workings of the Education Act 1981; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Dunn

In general, yes. Many local education authorities have reappraised their special education provision and arrangements in the light of the Act. We recognise that full implementation will be a gradual process.
