§ Mr. Brothertonasked the Secretary of State for Education and Science if he will publish a table in the Official Report showing the cost to central Government funds of each university and polytechnic in England and Wales.
§ Dr. BoysonDetails of Government grants to individual universities in the financial year 1979–80 are 361W published in the Appropriation Accounts (HC 98, pages 33 and 34). The proportion of expenditure by local authorities on polytechnics effectively met by central Government through rate support grant—which is unhypothecated—could not be calculated without disproportionate cost.
