Question to the Department for Education:

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, with reference to the HM Treasury press release, Chancellor announces £4.5 billion of measures to bring down debt, published on 4 June 2015, what efficiency savings she plans to make to meet planned reductions of £450 million in her Department's budget.

These savings will come from a variety of measures including expected departmental underspends in demand-led budgets, efficiencies and some small budgetary reductions. No savings will be made from protected schools funding.
