§ Mr. David ShawTo ask the Secretary of State for Education what plans his Department has(a) to utilise the Internet, (b) to make available on the Internet press releases and other departmental information which the public may wish to have access to and (c) to use the Internet as a means of increasing the openness of his Department.
§ Mr. ForthThe Department's press releases issued electronically through the Central Office of Information are accessible to users of the Internet via Data-Star Dialog (Europe) or Mead/Lexis/Nexis. They are also available to subscribers to FT Profile, Reuters Textline and to POLIS.
The Department's press releases are also made available through the COI's fax retrieval service, details of which can be provided by its distribution service.
I have no further plans to use the Internet directly.
§ Mr. David JamiesonTo ask the Secretary of State for Education, if he will list the private and independent schools that have been inspected by Her Majesty's inspectors of schools or OFSTED in the past five years, giving the date of the inspection, where the inspection led to a published report.
§ Mr. Robin Squire[pursuant to his reply 15 March 1994, c. 626–27]: Those independent schools which received an HMI inspection between 1 September 1989 and 31 August 1992 which led to published reports are listed. This corrects the information given in the earlier reply.
