asked the Minister of Education what conclusions have been reached by the Central Advisory Council for Education on wastage of students in part-time courses at technical colleges; and what action he proposes to take.

The Council has not informed my right hon. Friend separately of its conclusions, but intends to deal with them in its main report.

The hon. Member will remember that this inquiry was started about a year ago. When is the main report expected?

By the end of the summer.
