§ Mr. BattleTo ask the Secretary of State for Education and Skills what the contractual period of 831W appointment is for (a) the Chairman and (b) the Director of Education Leeds; and if he will make a statement. [114358]
§ Mr. MilibandThe Chairman has been appointed for five years. I understand from Education Leeds that the company does not have a Director of Education, but has a Chief Executive who was appointed for five years by the company's Board of Directors. There are four directors on the company's Board in addition to the Chairman: two of them have appointments which end when the partnership agreement between the council, Education Leeds and Capita terminates; the other two appointments are not time-limited.
