HC Deb 25 January 1962 vol 652 c33W
Mr. Boyden

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies if he will publish the amounts spent on liberal adult education in each of the Colonial Territories, the percentage this represents of educational expenditure in the territory and the number of full-time staff employed in this work in each territory.

Member asked is not readily and precisely available and could not be obtained without a disproportionate amount of time and money both here and in the Colonial Territories.
