asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science when he percentage of students who receive less than half of the full grant.

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science when he next plans to meet the National Union of Students to discuss student grants; and what arrangements he will make to consult the growing number of students who are not now members of the National Union of Students but who have a close interest in the level of student grants.

I expect to meet the National Union of Students before the student grant rates for the academic year 1976–77 are settled. It is open to all students to send me their views on any aspect of student grants.
