§ 38. Mr. Owenasked the Secretary of State for Education and Science what steps are being taken to extend the services of adult education, excluding residential colleges, to meet the leisure time opportunities of citizens.
§ Mr. HoggAs I told the hon. Member for Islington, East (Mr. Fletcher) on 9th April, the best encouragement to adult education at this stage is the development of the long term residential colleges. The Government do not feel justified this year in supporting further expansion in other forms of adult education beyond the increases sanctioned in 1963–64.
