HC Deb 01 March 1977 vol 927 c142W
Mr. Beith

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science what representations she has received concerning the consequences for public expenditure of the amalgamation of the theological department with the other departments of King's College, London, as a constituent college of the University of London under a new charter.

Mr. Oakes

Representations have been made by a member of staff of King's College, London, suggesting that an amalgamation would lead to additional public expenditure. King's College has yet to petition the Privy Council for the grant of a charter; if this is done, all representations will be fully considered.
