Question to the Department for Education:

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, how many providers of adult education, including sub-contracted provision, have not had an Ofsted inspection in each region in the last 10 years.

This is a matter for Ofsted. I have asked Her Majesty’s Chief Inspector, Amanda Spielman, to write to the hon. Member for Manchester Central and a copy of the letter will be placed in the Libraries of both Houses.
