Apprenticeships, Skills, Children and Learning Bill

I echo what my noble friend Lord Low has said. It would be nice if we had reached the point when we did not feel it necessary to reiterate yet again that special needs, disabilities, and so on must have equal access. But I fear that that point has not yet arrived. I congratulate the Government on the attention that they have given to this, but the way in which the noble Baroness, Lady Walmsley, illustrated the issue makes it clear that there is still an unevenness, and it may give rather too much flexibility on how it can be interpreted locally. I support the amendment.
