Mr. Edward M. Taylorasked the Secretary of State for Education and Science what was the total capital value of university building work on which construction started in Scotland in 1968; what were the comparable figures in 1964; and what percentage increase this represents at constant prices.
§ Mrs. Shirley WilliamsI would refer the hon. Member to the answer I gave him on 28th November last. While the figure for the financial year 1968–69 is lower than for the calendar year 1964, it represents 27 per cent. of the total value of university building started in Great Britain, as compared with 14 per cent. in 1964.—[Vol. 774, c.158.]
