HC Deb 02 April 1980 vol 982 c267W
Mr. Greenway

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science if he will seek to arrange a working party to inquire into and report on the arrangements for tenure by holders of academic and related posts at different universities; and if he will publish the factual findings of such a working party, but allow advice arising therefrom to remain confidential in accordance with existing practice.

Dr. Boyson

I do not think such an inquiry would be helpful at present but I am writing to my hon. Friend.
