32. Sir William van Straubenzee

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science what progress has been made towards the co-ordination of courses at polytechnics and other colleges through the National Advisory Body for Local Authority Further and Higher Education.

The national advisory body will be advising my right hon. Friend later this year on a rational distribution of academic provision within the resources available across the local authority higher education sector in 1984–85.
