For those who have missed this in the news and in the other thread here is the transcript of the Parliamentary questions put to Truss by Lucy Powell MP

Truss was asked how many agencies are to be established ...strange that she does not know the answer?

But when questioned on the cost of agencies she gave the exact figure figures spent on evaluating the trials but not the name of the 'independent evaluator'...

Scroll down to 284W to see her replies

My feeling is that she knows a lot but 'won't' say it...if all fails she will blame those who were given the money for the task...rather naïve of Truss to think we buy her badly disguised ignorance ...don't you think?

The refusal to publish consultations as 'not in the public interest' confirms they think we're ignorant of what's going on

Reminds me of this:

Thanks Simona :thumbsup:
Yes they're the ones

I don't suppose you can remember the questions that were asked on that consultation can you? Filled in that many, I can't remember which one's which
*note to self, make a list of the questions asked when responding so I can recall what it is the government don't want me to remember! :laughing:

If you go on the DfE website you will find the consultation there...I know it has closed but it should be there and it was about staff deployment and therefore 'ratios'...the DfE will not publish the results but it has to keep it on its website
