To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Employment if he will undertake a review of funding for people with learning difficulties. [97258]

Jacqui Smith

The Government are committed to providing high quality learning opportunities for people with learning difficulties. We will be publishing a consultation document on the Learning and Skills Council's funding system at the end of the year. It will seek views on the arrangements for funding across the range of the Learning and Skills Council's responsibilities, including the funding arrangements for people with learning difficulties.
