Mr. Freud

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science, pursuant to his reply to the hon. Member for Cambridgeshire, North-East of 24 June, Official Report, columns 310–311, whether he will list in the Official Report the percentage changes in the funding of each university by the University Grants Committee, excluding those amounts representing compensation for changes in home student fees, compensation for redundancy and early retirement, changes to take account of minor capital works from the recurrent grant and changes in the level of local authority rates; and if he will provide similar information for the periods between 1980–81 and 1981–82 (a) including and (b) excluding these amounts.

Mr. Brooke

[pursuant to his reply, 25 July 1985]: The percentage changes in the funding of each university by the University Grants Committee, excluding those amounts representing compensation for changes in the level of home student fees, compensation for redundancy and early retirement, provision for capital-in-recurrent expenditure and local authority rates for the periods 1981–82 to 1982–83 and 1982–83 to 1983–84 are given in columns (3) and (4) below. These figures also exclude additions made for the IT and new blood programmes. Similar information for the period 1980–81 to 1981–82 (a) including and (b) excluding these amounts is given in columns (1) and (2) below respectively.
