HC Deb 22 November 1961 vol 649 cc154-5W
Mr. Dempsey

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland how many grant-aided students had their courses of study terminated at the end of their first year at Glasgow University during session 1960–61.

Mr. Maclay

The information available to me does not enable me to differentiate between students whose courses are terminated and those who leave University for personal and other reasons.

Mr. Dempsey

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland if he will publish figures showing the total revenue allocation by the University Grants Committee for the current financial year to Glasgow University, and the total cost to the Government and local authorities, respectively, of allowances being paid to students at present studying at Glasgow University.

Mr. Maclay

It will take some time to ascertain how far all the information asked for is available, but inquiries are being made and my hon. Friend the Financial Secretary to the Treasury will write to the hon. Member.
