HC Deb 30 January 1990 vol 166 cc158-9W
53. Mr. Amess

To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Science when he last met the chairman of Essex county council education committee.

Mr. Alan Howarth

My right hon. Friend has not met the chairman of Essex county council education committee recently, but I met her on 23 November. I also met, on 22 January, the chairman of the county council, who is standing in for her while she is in hospital.
