§ 54. Dr. John Dunwoodyasked the Secretary of State for Education and Science if he will have discussions with student organisations regarding increased student involvement in the decision making processes in the field of higher education.
§ Mr. Edward ShortThe degree of student involvement is a matter for discussion within the individual universities and colleges. So far as the universities are concerned, the Committee of Vice-Chancellors have announced that they will arrange for specific points to which the National Union of Students have drawn attention to be considered by the universities individually and that the Committee are ready to discuss them at national level. I understand that the Union also hope to arrange similar discussions with the local authorities.
