Skills and Post-16 Education Bill [HL] - Report (1st Day) – in the House of Lords at 8:28 pm on 12 October 2021.
Moved by Lord Willetts
33: Clause 7, page 10, line 17, at end insert—
“(8) Where a technical education qualification has had its approval withdrawn under subsection (2), funding may not be withdrawn by the Secretary of State without public consultation and the consent of the relevant employer representative bodies, as defined in the Skills and Post-16 Education Act 2021.”
It is very important that we sense the mood of the House on this issue. I beg to move.
My Lords, there being an equality of votes, in accordance with Standing Order 55, which provides that no proposal to amend a Bill in the form in which it is before the House shall be agreed to unless there is a majority in favour of such amendment, I declare the amendment disagreed to.
Ayes 135, Noes 135.
