HC Deb 18 December 1958 vol 597 c244W
Mr. Gresham Cooke

asked the Minister of Education what he estimates would be the approximate annual cost of a 50 per cent. increase in the number of State scholarships awarded by his Department.

Mr. Geoffrey Lloyd

I estimate that the additional annual cost of increasing by 50 per cent. the number of State scholarships (other than supplemental State scholarships) awarded by my Department would be approximately £1 million at present rates.
