HC Deb 25 October 1985 vol 84 c259W
Mr. Greenway

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science if he will make a statement on his recent visits to the Open University.

Mr. Brooke

My right hon. Friend visited the Open University on 17 and 20 July, when he discussed with the university its undergraduate work and continuing education programme. The purpose of the visits was to familiarise himself with the university, and he obtained a valuable picture of its activities and operations.
