10 may 2011 letter on clause 37
The Education Bill contains a clause to allow maintained school governing bodies to change their size and composition. Just before the Bill finished its passage in the Commons this week, the schools minister Nick Gibb wrote to Liberal Democrat MPs Dan Rogerson and Tessa Munt explaining the Governments intention to ensure that governing bodies who change their constitution retain one staff governor and a local authority appointed governor. You can see the letter via the attached link - Education Bill letter on Clause 37.
