HC Deb 06 December 1974 vol 882 c645W
Mr. Robin F. Cook

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science what is the amount of the full student grant which is intended to cover rent payments in term time, and the increase which this represents over the previous award.

Mr. Prentice

The grant is intended to meet the student's maintenance needs as a whole, and there is no separately identified element to cover rent payments.
