Hotel Catering and Institutional Management (Student Places)

HC Deb 16 July 1982 vol 27 cc476-7W

Mr. Speller

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science if he will list the numbers of places available and taken up in 1982–83 for students of hotel, catering and institutional management subjects leading to university degrees, CNAA degrees, TEC and SCOTEC higher diplomas, HCIMA part B exams, HCIMA graduate entry courses and CNAA postgraduate diplomas, respectively.

Mr. William Shelton

The information is not available in the form requested, and could not be obtained except at disproportionate cost. An approximate estimate of places available for first-year students in England and Wales is as follows:

University degrees	100
CNAA degrees	400
HND/HTD	1,500
HCIMA Part B	350
HCIMA Graduate entry	25
CNAA Post-graduate	60

No figures are yet available for prospective 1982–83 enrolments.

Questions about higher education in Scotland and Northern Ireland are for my right hon. Friends the Secretaries of State for Scotland and Northern Ireland.
