§ Mr. Moonmanasked the Secretary of State for Education and Science if he will review his decision not to participate in the construction of a £125 million European atom smasher for nuclear energy research on C.E.R.N., in view of the French Government's recent decision to contribute to the project.
§ Mr. FowlerI have noted with great interest the French Government's decision, which will enable the project to go ahead. The Government have not reconsidered the matter, but I am well aware of the views of the Science Research Council in favour of British participation.
