§ Mr. GalbraithTo ask the Secretary of State for Scotland how many children have had their record of special needs reviewed(a) in total and (b) under the statutory procedures, by the Greater Glasgow health board in each year since 1987.
§ Mr. Michael ForsythIt is the responsibility of education authorities to keep under consideration the record of needs of all children and young persons in their area and to review their decision to open these records and the information entered on them whenever they consider it expedient to do so, or at the request of a parent of young person. Greater Glasgow health board has no statutory obligations in this connection.
A record of the number of reviews of records of needs undertaken by education authorities is not held centrally.
