§ 88. Mr. Jeffrey Archerasked the Secretary of State for Education and Science whether she has studied the proposal to establish a self-supporting university free of direct State financial support, details of which have been sent to her; and what estimate she has made of the implications of the project on her Department's plans for the future of higher education.
§ Mrs. ThatcherYes, with interest, but it is too early to estimate the probable contribution of this project to the expansion of higher education provision.
