Liberal Democrat — North Cornwall

Speaking in the House of Commons on 12 June 2025

Debate

SEND Funding

Contribution

Cornwall ranks 144th out of 151 local authorities for per-pupil SEND funding, and children with SEND needs in Cornwall get almost half the funding of those in Middlesbrough. Does my hon. Friend agree that this gross funding unfairness should be urgently addressed?
