HC Deb 12 July 1990 vol 176 c313W
Mr. Fatchett

To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Science whether he will make a statement on his review of the charging regulations issued under the Education Reform Act.

Mrs. Rumbold

The Department is at present collecting evidence, through a sample survey of schools and from other sources, of the pattern of out-of-school activities since 1989 and the reasons for any changes. Results will be available later this year. We shall consider, in the light of all the evidence, whether there is a case for further advice to schools or other action.
