§ Mr. Radiceasked the Secretary of State for Education and Science (1) when the analysis was completed for the 1986 report by Her Majesty's inspectors on the effects of local authority expenditure policies on education provision in England;
(2) if he will publish the 1986 report by Her Majesty's inspectors on the effects of local authority expenditure policies on education provision in England.
§ Mr. Kenneth BakerI understand from Her Majesty's senior chief inspector of schools that work has not yet been completed on the analysis for and the content of the annual expenditure report for 1986. The timing of its submission to Ministers is entirely and solely a matter for HM inspectorate. The question of publication can only be considered when I receive the report.
