HC Deb 29 October 1984 vol 65 c834W
Mr. Carter-Jones

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services how many research fellowships are awarded each year to occupational therapists, physiotherapists and remedial gymnasts; and if he has any plans to increase the numbers.

Mr. Kenneth Clarke

The research fellowships awarded to occupational therapists, physiotherapists and remedial gymnasts each year since 1978 are as follows:

Numbers
1978 2
1979 2
1980 2
1981 none
1982 none
1983 3
1984 3

Our intention is to award up to four research fellowships in 1985, one of which will be funded by the Scottish Home and Health Department.
