HC Deb 20 December 1962 vol 669 cc210-1W
38. Mr. K. Lewis

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer, in view of the increasing number of university places required to meet the needs of qualified school leavers, whether improved building techniques can be introduced in order to provide a more rapid expansion of university buildings within the present finances available.

Mr. Boyd-Carpenter

I understand that the University Grants Committee are actively considering the applicability to university buildings of recent developments in building techniques which might save both time and money.
