Business of the House

Business question from Mark Pritchard (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 9 February 2017. It occurred during Business statement and Speaker's statement on Business of the House.

May we have a debate on how local councils review school catchment areas? Is the Leader of the House aware that the council in my area is seeking to tear up the current catchment areas in the Muxton ward, meaning that parents who have invested in local housing to access Burton Borough school in Newport will have to look elsewhere? It will also fundamentally change the way their children get to school. May we have an urgent debate to ensure children are not disenfranchised, either today or in the future?
