To ask the Scottish Executive how and with what frequency inspection of home education is carried out.

Answered by Michael Russell (12/08/2010): In December 2007, the Scottish Government published statutory guidance on home education, following consultation. In that guidance it is recommended that local authorities maintain annual contact with home educating families. Precisely how contact is established and followed up if needs be is a matter for the authority.
