Petitions
Badman Report (Newark)
11.47 pm
Patrick Mercer (Newark) (Con): I rise to present a petition on behalf of 25 of my constituents who
are concerned about the recommendations of the Badman Report, which suggests closer monitoring of home educators, including a compulsory annual registration scheme and right of access to people's homes for local authority officials.
believe the recommendations are based on a review that was extremely rushed, failed to give due consideration to the evidence,
failed to ensure that the data it collected were sufficiently robust, and failed to take proper account of the existing legislative framework.
Following is the full text of the petition:
[ The Petition of persons resident in the Newark parliamentary constituency,
Declares that they are concerned about the recommendations of the Badman Report, which suggests closer monitoring of home educators, including a compulsory annual registration scheme and right of access to people's homes for local authority officials; further declares that the Petitioners believe the recommendations are based on a review that was extremely rushed, failed to give due consideration to the evidence, failed to ensure that the data it collected were sufficiently robust, and failed to take proper account of the existing legislative framework.
The Petitioners therefore request that the House of Commons urges the Secretary of State for Children, Schools and Families either not to bring forward, or to withdraw, proposed legislative measures providing for tighter registration and monitoring of children educated at home in the absence of a thorough independent inquiry into the condition and future of elective home education in England; but instead to take the steps necessary to ensure that the existing Elective Home Education Guidelines for Local Authorities are properly implemented, learning from current best practice, in all local authorities in England.
And the Petitioners remain, etc. ]
Badman Report (Romford)
11.48 pm
Andrew Rosindell (Romford) (Con): In the same vein as my hon. Friend the Member for Newark (Patrick Mercer), on behalf of the constituents of Romford, I would like to present a petition of no fewer than the names of 14 parents who are deeply concerned about the recommendations of the Badman report and the possible detrimental changes to home education. I urge the Government to rethink their policy on this.
Following is the full text of the petition:
[The Petition of persons resident in the Romford parliamentary constituency,
Declares that they are concerned about the recommendations of the Badman Report, which suggests closer monitoring of home educators, including a compulsory annual registration scheme and right of access to people's homes for local authority officials; further declares that the Petitioners believe the recommendations are based on a review that was extremely rushed, failed to give due consideration to the evidence, failed to ensure that the data it collected were sufficiently robust, and failed to take proper account of the existing legislative framework.

for Local Authorities are properly implemented, learning from current best practice, in all local authorities in England.
And the Petitioners remain, etc.]
Equitable Life (West Dorset)
11.49 pm
Mr. Oliver Letwin (West Dorset) (Con): Although I tabled the early-day motion on the Badman report, I rise to present a petition on behalf of constituents of mine who are concerned about the Equitable Life saga and, in particular, the failure of Her Majesty's Government to fulfil, in full, the recommendations of the ombudsman. That subject has been much debated in this House.
The Petitioners therefore request that the House of Commons urges the Government to uphold the constitutional standing of the Parliamentary Ombudsman by complying-
with the findings and recommendations of her Report upon Equitable Life.
Following is the full text of the petition.
[ The Petition of residents of the constituency of West Dorset,
Declares that the Petitioners either are or they represent or support members, former members or personal representatives of deceased members of the Equitable Life Assurance Society who have suffered maladministration leading to injustice, as found by the Parliamentary Ombudsman in her report upon Equitable Life, ordered by the House of Commons to be printed on 16 July 2008 and bearing reference number HC 815; and further declares that the Petitioners or those whom they represent or support have suffered regulatory failure on the part of the public bodies responsible from the year 1992 onwards, but have not received compensation for the resulting losses and outrage.
The Petitioners therefore request that the House of Commons urges the Government to uphold the constitutional standing of the Parliamentary Ombudsman by complying with the findings and recommendations of her Report upon Equitable Life.
And the Petitioners remain, etc. ]
Badman Report (Castle Point)
11.50 pm
Bob Spink (Castle Point) (Ind): I believe that the state does not always know better than the parents how they should bring up and educate their children. I am, therefore, delighted to present this petition on the Badman report, which has been signed by a number of my very caring and well-informed constituents. They are right to be concerned.
Following is the full text of the petition:
[ The Petition of persons resident in the Castle Point parliamentary constituency,
Declares that they are concerned about the recommendations of the Badman Report, which suggests closer monitoring of home educators, including a compulsory
annual registration scheme and right of access to people's homes for local authority officials; further declares that the Petitioners believe the recommendations are based on a review that was extremely rushed, failed to give due consideration to the evidence, failed to ensure that the data it collected were sufficiently robust, and failed to take proper account of the existing legislative framework.
