HC Deb 11 May 1981 vol 4 c209W
13. Mr. Tom Ellis

asked the Secretary of State for Wales what consultations he has had about the installation of microprocessors in Welsh schools.

Mr. Michael Roberts

The purchase of microcomputers is a matter for individual education authorities and schools. Local education authorities in Wales and the local authority associations have been advised of the guidelines applying to the recently announced Government scheme to provide funds for secondary schools at present without microcomputers. The Welsh joint education committee is fully involved in all aspects of microelectronics education in Wales.
