Mr. Robin F. Cook
asked the Secretary of State for Scotland if he is satisfied with the number of universities which have applied for a charter under the Universities (Scotland) Act 1966; and if he proposes to encourage an increase in this number.
Mr. William Ross
None of the universities concerned has applied for a charter. The decision whether or not to do so rests with them.
