HC Deb 07 December 1967 vol 755 cc364-5W
59. Mr. Maxwell

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science whether he proposes to publish the report of the Exploratory Group on the Support of University Science referred to in the second report of the Council for Scientific Policy; and when the report of the Joint Working Group on the same topic may be expected.

Mr. Gordon Walker

No. The Exploratory Group, whose report was for the Council's own guidance, recommended the formation of a Joint Working Group to study the support of scientific research in the universities. The Joint Working Group has been set up but I cannot yet say when it will report.
