HC Deb 30 March 1965 vol 709 c221W
Mr. Dempsey

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland, in view of the unsatisfactory ceiling levels of higher school bursaries, when he proposes to increase these bursaries; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Ross

The maximum annual rates of higher school bursaries were increased at the beginning of Session 1963–64 from £45 to £70 for pupils in the fourth year and from £60 to £100 for pupils in the fifth or a later year of a secondary course. The rates and other aspects of the bursaries scheme are being kept under review.
