HL Deb 03 December 1987 vol 490 c1229WA
Lord Sheffield

asked Her Majesty's Government:

Whether the Co-ordinating Committee on Marine Science and Technology, announced in July 1986, has been constituted; what its terms of reference are; and how many meetings it has held.

The Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State, Department of Education and Science (Baroness Hooper)

Invitations to serve on this committee have recently been issued. I expect my right honourable friend the Secretary of State for Education and Science to make a formal announcement about membership and terms of reference very shortly.
