§ Mr. Dalyellasked the Secretary of State for Education and Science from what outside sources the review group chaired by Sir John Kendrew examining British participation in particle physics research at CERN is seeking evidence.
§ Mr. BrookeThe review group chaired by Sir John Kendrew, which is concerned with all aspects of United Kingdom participation in particle physics, is an independent one commissioned jointly by the Advisory Board for the Research Councils and the Science and Engineering Research Council. For convenience, however, the group issued a general invitation for evidence through a departmental press notice dated 24 May 1984 and I understand that it has also specifically invited evidence from a number of organisations, including the Committee of Vice-Chancellors and Principals and the Royal Society, and from scientists and others covering a range of interests.
