HC Deb 10 July 1969 vol 786 c293W
61. Mr. van Straubenzee

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science why he has recommended local education authorities that all notifications of grant in respect of the academic year 1969–70 should clearly show the assessments to be made on a provisional basis only.

Mrs. Shirley Williams

The Regulations governing first degree and comparable courses are being consolidated. When this advice was given, it was thought that changes affecting the assessments of a small, though still significant, group of students might be introduced, although it was not, and is not, proposed that rates of grant be altered. It is not now proposed to make any appreciable changes.
