asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science if he will state the amount spent by the Medical Research Council in 1965–66 on research in the field of mental illness, and the proportion of total research expenditure by the Medical Research Council in that year which this represents, the corresponding approximate figures for 1966–67 and the corresponding target figures for 196768, respectively.

Mr. Goronwy Roberts

I would refer my hon. Friend to the Answer I gave to the hon. Member for Orpington (Mr. Lubbock) on 8th June, 1967. The corresponding approximate figures for 196566 were £771,000 (8 per cent.); and for 1966–67, £893,000 (8.5 per cent.).—[Vol. 747, c.240.]
