Lord Murray of Blidworth (Con)
I am unfamiliar with the details of the Turing scheme, but I will certainly look into it and write to the noble Baroness.
Lord Haselhurst (Con)
While a system for the long term is being worked on, one way to lessen the problems at the moment would be to invest more in schooling across the board. I have seen that in operation in places where schools have, at certain times, a curriculum that is identical to that of other partners. That might at least do something to close the gap that exists at the moment.
Lord Murray of Blidworth (Con)
That may well be a very good idea. I am afraid that I am not in a position to comment on that at the moment, but I will certainly look into it.
