I support the calls for a debate on the WTO talks. It would be important for us to have such a debate in the House. Will the Leader schedule time for a debate on class sizes, specifically in primary schools? The INTO is currently running a campaign, which will be coming to every constituency, on the Government's commitment that all children under nine years of age will be in classes of no more than 20. The commitment has not been honoured, however, and it does not appear that it will be. All over the country children are in classes of over 30, some in the high 30s. The situation is unacceptable, so I ask the Leader to schedule a debate on that matter as soon as possible.
