answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 12/09/2018 answer text <p>The UK Government was very concerned at some of the allegations outlined in the IMPACT-SE report. We are therefore working to commission a robust study into the new Palestinian textbooks. Our assessment is that the IMPACT-SE report was not objective in its findings and lacked methodological rigour. For example, some claims were made on the basis of a partial or subjective reading of the text, some findings are presented out of context, and there was limited information available about the sampling approach to select textbooks to analyse.</p> answering member constituency North East Bedfordshire answering member printed Alistair Burt question first answered 12/09/2018 16:42:08 answering member 1201 label Biography information for Alistair Burt
