HC Deb 05 May 1975 vol 891 c301W
45. Mr. Wigley

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science if he will publish the names of those bodies and persons from whom he has had representations concerning the future of the Normal College in Bangor; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Prentice

There have been expressions of views on this question from a number of sources, including the Gwynedd County Council, the Joint Education Committee for North Wales which administers the college, the governing body and staff of the college and the University College of North Wales. My noble Friend the Minister of State for Education and Science visited Bangor last Friday for discussions with representatives of all the main interests concerned and a decision in principle on the future of the college will be announced shortly.
