§ Mr. Gordon Wilsonasked the Lord Privy Seal if he will make it his practice to collect figures on a regional basis for the numbers of overseas students placed by the British Council on all courses in the United Kingdom, and on regional and course bases for payments for such courses.
§ Mr. RidleyFigures for the allocation of overseas students by region are already available. Figures for the regional distribution of courses and fees are not available and we could not justify asking the British Council to devote scarce resources to producing such figures.
