§ Mr. MulleyThe question of United Kingdom support for the establishment of a European Institute of Technology is under consideration by Her Majesty's Government. No formal request for a United Kingdom financial contribution has been received. Germany, Italy and the Netherlands have so far given some indication that they may wish to participate. The location and date of opening would be determined once decisions had been taken upon the establishment of the Institute.
