§ Mr. Nicholas Wintertonasked the Secretary of State for Defence how many of the employees in his Department are the holders of degrees or diplomas which were awarded by the Open University.
§ Mr. PattieOur records show that 333 MOD non-industrial employees hold degrees awarded by the Open University. As staff are not obliged to inform the Department of the attainment of awards, it is probable that this figure could be higher. The number holding diplomas is not known.
No comparable records are held for industrial staff.
