HC Deb 17 March 1993 vol 221 c276W
Lady Olga Maitland

To ask the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will give a breakdown by region of the faith allegiance of pupils in maintained schools and the percentage of pupils not educated in the maintained sector.

Lord James Douglas-Hamilton

[holding answer 10 March 1993]: Regional figures on the religious affiliation of pupils in education authority schools in Scotland are not judged to be sufficiently reliable for publication because of substantial survey non-response. I will write separately to my hon. Friend on this matter.
