HC Deb 11 April 1968 vol 762 c293W
25. Dame Irene Ward

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science if he will recommend the appointment of a Royal Commission to examine restrictions placed on the numbers of women seeking admission to universities for professional training, and to make recommendations for removing these restrictions.

Mrs. Shirley Williams

No. The relatively low proportion of university students who are women, is not due to restrictions.
