- Have all the relevant sites been surveyed properly. Building on Metropolitan Open Land (i.e. a park) is equivalent in planning terms to building on Green Belt. If permitted at all it should only be a last resort.
- Will the new school be fully funded?
- Will the current closing private school make any contribution?
- What will happen to the old school site in Stonebridge?
- Why does this matter apparently have Ealing and Harrow representatives but no opinions from Brent MPs or Brent Council?

It was Bob Blackman who raised the possibility of a Northwick Park site. The development option the Northwick Park partners chose was not the one that included a secondary school. If it did I would think the proposed North Wembley Secondary School would have first option even though the site is not in Wembley. One of the Labour MPs stated in the debate that Dawn Butler was a 'fervent' supporter of the Swaminarayan School.
