HC Deb 31 October 1984 vol 65 c995W
Mr. Tom Cox

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science what is the percentage cut in the funding to the Open University; and how this compares with cuts in funding to the rest of the university sector.

Mr. Brooke

Comparisons across the sectors require calculations which involve a number of assumptions. I shall write to the hon. Member as soon as possible.
