Categorised under the topics of Ethnic groups, Religion and faith communities and Schools.

leave out from `again' to end and add `welcomes therefore the ongoing unequivocal cross-party commitment to these trips; notes that the only issue under dispute is the Government's characterisation of the level of funding it is providing; regrets that the Government press release announcing the initiative made no mention of the financial contribution schools have to make towards the visits themselves; believes this to be another example of Government failing to give the full story; therefore welcomes the confirmation already given that, if elected to Government, a Conservative administration would not only continue to provide financial subsidy for the HET's trips to Auschwitz programme but would fund the trips in full so schools would not have to find the extra money from their budgets; and looks forward to a continuing cross-party consensus on this important issue.'.

This is a ammendment to 1032.

This motion has been signed by a total of 29 MPs.
