HC Deb 06 June 1984 vol 61 cc195-6W
Mr. Nicholas Winterton

asked the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs how many of the employees in his Department are the holders of degrees or diplomas which were awarded by the Open University.

Mr. Whitney

We have no collective record of how many Foreign and Commonwealth Office staff hold Open University degrees or diplomas. Notification of such awards is generally made on a voluntary basis and is not recorded centrally.
