Will the right hon. Gentleman acknowledge that there are considerable sums involved in terms of anticipation of royalties and revenue? Is he aware that a conservative estimate is that the sum might be £1,200 million per annum by 1985? Will he say how much lie and his right hon. Friend the Secretary of State for Education and Science will devote to this very important area of educational research?
Secretary of State was originally the title given to the two officials who conducted the Royal Correspondence under Elizabeth I. Now it is the title held by some of the more important Government Ministers, for example the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs.
