HC Deb 01 March 1988 vol 128 c512W
Mr. Harry Greenway

To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Science whether he will make a statement on the proposed amalgamation of the Council for Educational Technology and the Micro-Electronics Education Support Unit.

Mr. Kenneth Baker

I wrote to the chairmen of these two bodies on 7 January 1988 proposing amalgamation [Official Report, 11 January 1988, column 55.] They have since written back indicating their agreement. I have accordingly notified them that the amalgamation will take effect from 1 April 1988.
