HC Deb 25 April 1988 vol 132 c5W
Mr. Goodlad

To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Science what proposals he has received from the Medical Research Council for future research into(a) major psychiatric disorders and (b) schizophrenia; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Jackson

My right hon. Friend has received no such proposals. It is for the Medical Research Council to determine its priorities for research from within the annual grant in aid which it receives from the Department's science budget.
