HC Deb 03 November 1986 vol 103 c299W
Mr. Marlow

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science if he will list all the official communications he or his officials have had with Brent education authority over the last three months.

Mrs. Rumbold

My Department is in frequent contact with local education authorities on a range of educational matters. Recent correspondence with Brent education authority has included two requests for it to state the reasons for the continuing suspension from her headship of Miss Maureen McGoldrick. In the light of its replies, my right hon. Friend has asked the authority to give urgent consideration to Miss McGoldrick's reinstatement.
