HC Deb 15 July 1975 vol 895 c446W
42. Mr. Robin F. Cook

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science if he will make a statement on his policy towards assistance of the Workers' Educational Association.

Mr. Mulley

I greatly value the contribution made to adult education by the Workers' Educational Association. I intend to help the association in its immediate financial difficulties but, although I shall see whether anything else can be done, for reasons of financial stringency I cannot at present consider long-term changes in the grant arrangements.
