Business of the House

Business question from Nicholas Dakin (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 3 March 2011. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.
We are now in March, yet we have had no clarity about how the enhanced discretionary learner support award that is replacing the educational maintenance allowance will operate. That is totally unfair on young people in years 11 and 12, while also being unfair on the schools and colleges that are trying to provide information, advice and guidance to allow young people to plan their futures. Can we have an urgent statement next week on the replacement of EMA so that we can find out how these young people are going to be supported?
