§ Mr. Harry GreenwayTo ask the Secretary of State for Education and Science if he intends to take steps to prevent the unreasonable removal of school governors by local authorities; and if he will make a statement.
§ Mrs. RumboldIt is for local authorities to decide who to appoint to the places on school governing bodies reserved for them. But they must exercise their powers reasonably, and we would consider very carefully any complaint that an authority had not done so in a particular instance.
