To ask Her Majesty's Government why Sutton, Worcestershire, Tameside, Sandwell, Telford and Wrekin, Brent, Leicestershire County, Hounslow, Sheffield, Birmingham City, Knowsley, Bracknell and Suffolk local authorities, who filled in the supplemental questionnaire in relation to home education, do not appear on the list of local authorities to have done so published by the Department for Children, Schools and Families.

There have been three separate requests to local authorities for data relating to home education. A list of authorities that responded to the first request is found at (http://www.dcsf.gov.uk/foischeme/subPage. cfm?action=collections.displayDocument&i_document ID=881&i_collectionID=346), the list of authorities that responded to the second request is found at (http://www.dcsf.gov.uk/foischeme/subPage.cfm?action=collections.displayDocument&i_ documentID=899&i_collectionID=347) and a list of authorities responding to the third request is found at http://www.dcsf.gov.uk/foischeme/. Where local authorities responded late to a data request their response may have been too late to be included in any analysis. Sutton, Sandwell, Telford and Wrekin, Brent, Leicestershire County, Birmingham City, Bracknell and Suffolk responded to the third questionnaire but their responses were too late to be analysed. Worcestershire, Tameside, Hounslow, Sheffield and Knowsley did not respond to the third questionnaire, although the published lists show that they did respond to the first and second questionnaires.
