asked the Minister for Education if she proposes to set up a national parents council and if so when.
I propose to take questions Nos. 783 and 784 together.
I consider that the establishment of a national parents council would provide a channel through which parents could make an effective contribution to educational planning. I am at present examining how such a council could best be constituted in order that it may be genuinely representative of all parents.
