HC Deb 12 March 1963 vol 673 c127W
55. Mr. W. Hamilton

asked the Parliamentary Secretary for Science whether the terms of reference of the Committee set up under Sir Burke Trend to review the existing organisation for the promotion of civil science by Government agencies include Government research in Scotland; and whether evidence will be taken from Scottish sources.

Mr. Denzil Freeth

The terms of reference of this Committee were made public in my reply to the hon. and learned Member for Kettering (Mr. Mitchison) on 28th May last. In addition to taking evidence from the appropriate Scottish Departments, the Committee is hearing the views of many bodies whose responsibilities embrace Scottish interests.
