HC Deb 14 January 1980 vol 976 c574W
Mr. Newens

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science if there is any liaison between United States military establishments and United Kingdom educational institutions in research projects; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Macfarlane

I am informed that a number of United Kingdom universities have research grants from the United States Department of Defense. Where research scientists on the staff of universities or the Science Research Council are working on problems similar to those on which researchers in United States defence establishments are working, there may be normal scientific contact at conferences or workshops.
