HC Deb 05 December 1944 vol 406 cc389-90W
Mr. Harvey

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer what is the present amount of the grant-in-aid to the Royal Society and other bodies in respect of scientific publications; and whether, in view of the recommendations made by the Parliamentary and Scientific Committee and other bodies, he is yet in a position to indicate whether it will be possible in the near future to make a substantial increase in this grant.

Sir J. Anderson

I would refer my hon. Friend to the reply I gave to the similar question by the hon. Member for London University (Sir E. Graham-Little) on 17th November.
