Schools to join debate

Friday 14 February 2003

The Agency is sponsoring the Durham University schools debating competition, which attracts up to 100 teams from a mixture of state and private schools across the UK and some from abroad.

The motion, 'This house would eat genetically modified foods', will be debated by the four teams reaching the final of the competition.

The Agency is also providing a bursary fund to enable 10 schools from disadvantaged areas to take part in the competition. The English Speaking Union and equivalent bodies in Scotland and Wales are helping to identify suitable schools.

Further information on the Durham Union Society that organises the competition can be found on the (External) Durham Union Society website .
