§ 49. Mr. Marksasked the Secretary of State for Education and Science why, under his regulations, students in colleges of education receive lower maintenance grants than those in universities.
§ 52. Mr. Ednyfed Hudson Daviesasked the Secretary of State for Education and Science if he will revoke the regulations under which students in colleges of education receive lower grants than university students.
§ Mrs. Shirley WilliamsGrants to nonresident students in colleges of education and universities are determined on the same basis, but the actual amount paid to a non-resident student in a college of education is in fact higher than that to a university student because the College of Education Year is longer. The grant to a resident student at a college of education is lower because he is provided with free board and lodging by the college, whereas the university student is not. I see no need to amend the relevant Regulations.
