HC Deb 14 May 1990 vol 172 c284W
Mr. Dalyell

To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Science, pursuant to his answer to the hon. Member for Meirionnydd Nant Conwy (Dr. Thomas),Official Report, 10 January, columns 621–22, what is the relationship between the nuclear engineering course which commenced at Queen Mary college in autumn 1989 and courses which closed in nuclear engineering in 1988.

Mr. Jackson

My reply to the hon. Member for Meirionnydd Nant Conwy (Dr. Thomas) on 10 January reflected the position stated in the handbook for 1989 entry produced by the Universities Central Council on Admissions. I regret that this was incorrect. Further investigations have shown that Queen Mary and Westfield college, London university decided not to proceed with the indicated first-degree course in mechanical and nuclear engineering.
