HC Deb 19 July 1994 vol 247 cc138-9W
Mr. Steinberg

To ask the Secretary of State for Education what assessment of potential advantages to recipients as a whole preceded the recent universal distribution of the updated parents charter.

Mr. Robin Squire

The changes taking place in our schools are of great importance to everyone, not just to the parents of school-age children. Independent research carried out last year among a representative sample of parents supported the view that distribution by national doordrop would be the right course of action.
