§ 26. Mr. WILLIAM GRAHAMasked the Prime Minister whether his attention has been drawn to the fact that the only opportunity of discussing the grants to British universities, the position of women students and teachers at Cambridge University as settled by the recent decision, and the important recommendations of the Royal Commission on the Universities of Oxford and Cambridge will be upon the Treasury Vote and not 958 on the Vote for the Board of Education; and whether, seeing that this is not a satisfactory method, in view of the far-reaching character of the issues raised, he will be prepared to grant a separate day for the Parliamentary discussion of these problems?
Mr. CHAMBERLAINThe Universities and Colleges Vote covers England and Scotland, and the expenditure is accounted for by the Treasury and not by the Board of Education. Arrangements can be made for a discussion of this Vote on one of the days allotted to Supply if a request is made in the usual manner.
Mr. MALONEWill the Government be prepared to support a Bill to place women at Cambridge on the same equality?
