HC Deb 27 March 1990 vol 170 c179W
Mr. Ward

To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Science whether he will make a further statement on the arrangements being made for the London boroughs to take over the responsibilities of the Inner London education authority.

Mrs. Rumbold

The transfer process is going satisfactorily and schools and colleges in the 13 inner London LEAs will open for business as usual on Monday 2 April. I look forward to the development of an improved, more cost-effective and more responsive education service in inner London.
