HC Deb 01 July 1992 vol 210 c569W
Mr. Byers

To ask the Secretary of State for Education how many new school governors he expects to recruit as a result of the school governor recruitment campaign.

Mr. Forth

Evidence suggests that around 75,000 school governor vacancies will need to be filled in the autumn. Our national campaign to raise awareness of governor issues is proving successful. We are confident that sufficient numbers of potential school governors will come forward.
