§ 26. Mr. Evelyn Kingasked the Secretary of State for Education and Science what information he has on the number of wheel chair students in statu pupillari at each British university, in view of the need to provide for their easier physical access to university buildings.
§ Mr. Denis HowellCentral records do not provide this information. I recognise that universities face problems here, especially where older buildings are involved, but a physical handicap is not a bar to acceptance of any suitably qualified candidate and in planning new university buildings the need for easy access for the disabled is borne in mind.
