§ Dr. McDonaldasked the Secretary of State for Education and Science whether the joint Research Council —Ministry of Defence research grants will provide an unmarked contribution towards overhead costs for the institutions concerned.
§ Mr. WaldenNo contribution towards overhead costs will be provided as part of research grants awarded under this scheme. This is in accordance with the arrangements which normally apply to all research grants made under the dual support system to academic institutions by the research councils and which have been in force for many years.
