HC Deb 27 April 1965 vol 711 cc211-2
24. Mr. Peter Griffiths

asked the Minister of Technology if the Computer Advisory Unit has been approached by the Greater London Council in connection with their current requirement for additional computers.

Mr. Cousins

I have had some discussion with the leader of the Greater London Council about its current requirements of computers. The Council is consulting the Unit about its future requirements.

Mr. Griffiths

Does the Minister agree that since there is a fruitful field in complex units of local government, this is a direction in which the Unit might well take the initiative?

Mr. Cousins

The Unit is prepared to do this at any time.
