asked the Minister of Education whether he is aware that a number of children certified as uneducable are now receiving and benefiting by instruction in special schools; and what steps he proposes to take to legalise this position.

Yes, Sir. At the earliest opportunity I propose to put forward an amendment of the law which at present makes these decisions irrevocable.

Does my right hon. Friend expect that that will be during the present Session of Parliament?

Yes, Sir, I hope so.

If these children, who are said to be uneducable, are benefiting by this teaching, was not something wrong with the first examination for their "I.Q."?

I do not think it is that so much as giving an opportunity to the medical profession or others to change their minds after a period of time.
