HC Deb 06 March 1984 vol 55 c551W
Mr. Freud

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science if he will make a statement on existing policy in respect of the autonomy of students unions.

Mr. Brooke

My right hon. Friend looks upon student unions as constituent parts of their parent institutions; their conduct is governed by their own constitutions and by the provisions of the charters and statutes or articles of government of those institutions.
