§ Mr. CroslandNo proposals for a new site or premises have yet been put forward and I cannot at present add to the statement which I made on 22nd February in reply to questions by my hon. Friend. It is not practicable to lay down minimum acreages for university institutions. Plans must be considered on their merits in the light of the facts. In November, 1964, there were 1,037 full-time and sandwich course students and 1,256 part-time and evening students enrolled at the college.
