§ Mr. Wrigglesworthasked the Secretary of State for Education and Science what representations she has received from the distributive trades about the proposals made by the Business Education Council for general, national and higher national awards; and if she will make a statement.
§ Mr. OakesMy right hon. Friend has received one letter recently on this subject. The reply drew attention to the Business Education Council's independent responsibilities for setting the pattern of its awards for students from the distributive trades. Copies of that correspondence were sent to the council for its attention.
