§ 42. Mr. Millanasked the Chancellor of the Exchequer if he will state the latest figure for full-time university staff, and the number estimated to be required in 1966–67.
§ Sir E. BoyleFourteen thousand one hundred in June, 1961, as against 11,410 at the beginning of the present Quinquennium in 1957. Staff required in 1966–67 will depend on a number of factors, such as the distribution of students between faculties which have widely differing staffing needs. Given the expansion which the Government 101W wish to see and existing staff-student ratios, I would expect the number to be between 19,500 and 20,000.
