HC Deb 11 July 1983 vol 45 c209W
Mrs. Renée Short

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science what grants are available from public funds for students wishing to follow courses in graphic design; and if he is satisfied that sufficient resources are available for this purpose.

Mr. Brooke

First degree and other designated courses which have a graphic design element, including those for the higher diploma of the Technician Education Council, attract mandatory awards. Non-designated advanced courses and lower level courses attract LEA discretionary awards. The Government have no present plans to extend the availability of mandatory awards.
