Mr. Robin Squire

This information is now held by the Funding Agency for Schools. I have asked the chairman of the funding agency to write to the hon. Member.

Mr. Jamieson

To ask the Secretary of State for Education if she will place in the Library a copy of the independent consultants' study into grant-maintained school spending on VAT made to inform her Department on the level of grant for 1994–95.

Mr. Robin Squire

No. It would not be normal practice to publish reports commissioned to advise Ministers and Government.
