The new Council will take over the responsibilities of the National Council for Technological Awards as soon as it is in a position to do so but the latter will continue to administer the Diploma in Technology in the meantime. The C.N.A.A. will no doubt communicate direct with authorities and colleges when it is ready to entertain applications for the approval of courses leading to its awards.
