HC Deb 18 February 1987 vol 110 cc656-7W
Mr. Carter-Jones

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science when he expects to receive the London university project report on the policy and implementation of the Education Act 1981; if the report will be available to the general public; and if he will make a statement.

Mrs. Rumbold

My right hon. Friend received the report on 31 December 1986. It will be published by the university of London institute of education in due course. The Department is studying the report, together with the findings of two complementary projects. Any further action must await the outcome of the inquiry by the Select Committee on Education, Science and the Arts into special education.
