HC Deb 12 March 1975 vol 888 c159W
Mr. MacFarquhar

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science if he will take steps to increase the number of places made available at United Kingdom technical colleges for students from developing countries.

Mr. Prentice

The choice of which students to admit must remain at the discretion of the colleges and their maintaining authorities, but I am, of course, very keen to see technical colleges making an important contribution in this field.
