HC Deb 15 December 1992 vol 216 cc187-8W
27. Mr. Don Foster

To ask the Secretary of State for Education if he will make a statement on the funding for the Open university from 1 January 1993, following the visiting committee's recommendations.

Mr. Boswell

My Department will pay grant to the Open university from January to March 1993 as part of the estimates which Parliament has already approved for 1992–93. From April 1993, the Higher Education Funding Council for England will be responsible for determining the university's grants.
