HC Deb 07 November 1962 vol 666 c952
8. Mr. Reynolds

asked the Civil Lord of the Admiralty what progress has been made towards ensuring the full use of facilities in the degree course in electrical engineering at the Royal Naval College, Greenwich.

Mr. C. Ian Orr-Ewing

I hope that we shall be in a position to offer courses for external students in time for the next academic year.

Mr. Reynolds

I welcome that statement by the hon. Gentleman because there is at the moment a full staff at the college doing the degree course and nothing like a full complement of students. Can the hon. Gentleman assure the House that he will make the facilities available there widely known to people who may be in a position to nominate or send students?

Mr. Orr-Ewing

I am grateful to the hon. Gentleman for giving the matter publicity by his Question. However, there are still some problems to be overcome. He will not mind if I just mention one—security.
