§ Mr. StrawTo ask the Secretary of State for Education and Science when he intends to publish copies of the report commissioned by the Advisory Board for the Research Councils from the Institute of Manpower Studies, on contract researchers employed in universities and polytechnics.
§ Mr. Kenneth BakerA report on contract researchers in universities, prepared by the IMS, was published by the ABRC last year. I understand that the board will be considering the report of a subsequent survey of such staff (also commissioned from the IMS), and the possibility of publishing this, at its next meeting.
