§ Mr. OnslowTo ask the Secretary of State for Education what representations he has received about the schools' reorganisation proposals published in October 1991 and January 1992 by the Roman Catholic diocese of Arundel and the Brighton Schools Commission; and when he now expects to announce his decision on these proposals.
§ Mr. ForthA substantial number of written objections to the proposals have been received and I have also listened to arguments put forward by deputations led by a number of my right hon. and hon. Friends.
The proposals are complex and wide ranging but I hope that our decision can be announced very shortly.
