The problem of poor, white British under attainment is real and the gap between those children and their better off class mates starts in their earliest school years and then widens as they get older.

Taming the Prerogative
The prerogative powers of ministers include some of the most important functions of government, such as decisions on armed conflict and the conclusion of international treaties. This report describes how such powers have come to be delegated. It also concludes that they should be more closely regulated.

Appropriate legislation, with any required statutory safeguards, would then be put into place. A draft Bill is appended to the report.
