HC Deb 02 July 1963 vol 680 cc47-8W
Mr. Dempsey

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland to what extent the opening of the new technical colleges in Motherwell and Hamilton will affect the continuation of Coatbridge Technical College as a further education centre; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Noble

Lanarkshire education authority intends to transfer to the new colleges in Motherwell and Hamilton some of the more advanced courses at present provided at Coatbridge Technical College. A wide range of courses will continue to be provided at Coatbridge, but the detailed provision will be decided in the light of the circumstances at the time of the opening of the new colleges.
