HC Deb 10 December 1968 vol 775 c104W
Mr. Gwynfor Evans

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science what plans he has to enable students to follow courses in Welsh history and Welsh literature in the Open University of the Air; and to what extent the Welsh language will be used as the medium of instruction.

Miss Jennie Lee

These are matters for the University Authority to consider when it is established.

Mr. Gwynfor Evans

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science what plans he has to cater for the needs of Wales in the Open University of the Air; and if he will set up a Welsh governing body.

Miss Jennie Lee

The Open University Planning Committee recognise the importance of providing for the needs of Wales in the organisation of the University. It is not their intention to set up a separate Welsh governing body.
