HC Deb 25 January 1983 vol 35 cc378-9W
Mr. Shersby

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science what information he has received concerning ultra vires payments by student unions; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Waldegrave

My right hon. Friend has received a number of complaints about the use of student union funds and where it has seemed possible that there has been ultra vires expenditure he has drawn the circumstances to the attention of the Attorney-General. My right hon. Friend is considering whether any further action is required.
