Her Majesty's Inspectors' report has only just been received. Their findings will be considered and any necessary action taken as quickly as possible.

Will the Minister bear in mind that, apart from the county local authority which has blacklisted this school, a number of other local authorities are anxiously waiting for information because they have sent children to this school? Will the hon. Gentleman treat the inspectors' report as a matter of urgency?

I agree with the hon. Gentleman that, in the interests of a good many people, we want to decide quickly what to do next. We have only just received the report.
