Clause 4 - Returns, reports etc. by Council to Secretary of State
Higher Education Bill
2:45 pm

Mr David Rendel (Shadow Minister (Higher Education), Education & Skills; Newbury, Liberal Democrat)
I join the welcome to you to the Committee, Mr. Hood.
I got a little lost when the hon. Member for Westmorland and Lonsdale was asking all his questions, so I may be repeating one that he has already asked, but I do not think that I am.
Will the Minister also tell us, if he can, how many times over the past year a Secretary of State has added comments to any of the reports that have presumably been given to them by all the other research councils, before laying them before the House?
