HC Deb 28 July 1988 vol 138 cc434-5W
Mr. Bowis

To ask the Minister for the Arts if he will make a statement on the future of the museum education service in London following the abolition of the Inner London education authority.

Mr. Luce

On the abolition of the Inner London education authority, each inner London borough will become responsible for the education service in its area. Boroughs, individually and jointly, are discussing with the ILEA and the Department of Education and Science a number of areas where cross-borough provision may continue to be appropriate.
