HC Deb 26 March 1985 vol 76 cc121-2W
Mr. Warren

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science if he will publish and place in the Library a list of titles and proposals of all the alpha grade research projects by each of the research councils in the financial year 1984–85 to date.

Mr. Brooke

Full details of alpha grade research projects from all research councils are not yet available for 1984–85, but the overall number thus graded exceeded 3,000 in each of the four years 1980 to 1984, and the list of titles and proposals asked for could not be provided except at disproportionate cost.
