Local Education Authorities And The Law

EDM number 718 in 1990-91, proposed by Alfred Morris on 17/04/1991.

That this House notes that, by refusing to assess children with special educational needs and issue statements describing their specific requirements, a growing number of local education authorities are dodging their legal obligation to make appropriate provision; deplores this disregard of legal obligations; and calls upon the Government to ensure that all local education authorities fulfil their legal duties under the Education Act 1981.

This motion has been signed by a total of 181 MPs, 3 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
