Liberal Democrat — Harrogate and Knaresborough

Speaking in the House of Commons on 24 July 2024

Debate

Education and Opportunity

Contribution

Today, North Yorkshire council has moved to restrict the services that it offers for home-to-school transport, which will have a disproportionate impact on rural schools and families. The Conservatives have been swept from power in Parliament, but they are still having a damaging impact on local government in areas such as mine in North Yorkshire. Does my hon. Friend agree that we should provide rural families and schools with more support, not less, to tackle the challenges that they face?
