§ Mr. Cryerasked the Minister for Overseas Development what facilities his Department is offering to Vietnamese students to undertake English courses in the United Kingdom and what is the number of places offered.
§ Mr. PrenticeIn March of this year I informed the Government of the Democratic Republic of Vietnam that the British Government would be willing to consider sympathetically any request for a technical assistance programme to provide English language teaching. Such a programme could cover training either in Britain or in Vietnam or it could cover both. So far I have received no reply to this offer.
