Apprenticeships, Skills, Children and Learning Bill

I completely agree with my hon. Friend, and it brings me to my final point, about subsection (4)(c) of proposed new section 562C, which states that where""it appears to the host authority that the special educational provision so specified"" by the former home authority""is no longer appropriate"" it can be set aside, as hon. Members have said. However, if it is set aside, some form of formal assessment should be carried out by the host authority. That authority should not be able simply to declare that it deems that that provision is no longer appropriate—a formal process should be conducted to ensure that that decision is reached after a rigorous assessment, and is not done purely to suit the authority's financial situation.
