HC Deb 04 December 1951 vol 494 c210W
53. Mr. Philips Price

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer whether he is yet in a position to make any statement as to his policy with regard to university grants; and whether he will give an assurance that the plans of the latter for providing the country with an adequate supply of scientists and technologists will not be hindered by any desire for economy.

Mr. R. A. Butler

Not yet. I have in mind the importance of the issues raised in the second part of the hon. Member's Question.
