  Education and Inspections Bill
  
  --- MOTION EFFECT ---
  
  The majority Not Contents defeated an amendment which would have allowed Local Authorities (or the Secretary of State) to choose to require that new faith schools had to admit a portion of their intake (up to 25%) from outside the faith.  The debate suggests that there was alarm that this quota system would be extended in time to existing faith schools, and that the Catholic ArchBishop of Birmingham had persuaded the Government not to introduce faith-based quotas.
