Question to the Ministry of Justice:
To ask the Secretary of State for Justice, if she will make an assessment of the potential merits of publishing the anonymised outcomes of tribunal cases related to SEND support.
Answered by Heidi Alexander - Secretary of State for Transport
The decision whether to publish a judgment is a judicial one.
Judgments of the Special Education Needs and Disability jurisdiction of the Health, Education and Social Care Chamber of the First-tier Tribunal are not routinely published.
However, members of the public and the media can apply to the tribunal for a copy of the judgment in a specific case.
