BOLTON INSTITUTE'S BID FOR UNIVERSITY STATUS (EDM1248)

BOLTON INSTITUTE'S BID FOR UNIVERSITY STATUS

EDM number 1248 in 1997-98, proposed by Brian Iddon on 27/04/1998.

That this House recognises that Bolton Institute is a university in all but name, since it has awarded its own degrees and higher degrees for some years, and that its bid for university status has a considerable amount of public support, not only within Bolton but across the country; and calls upon the Government to support this bid.

This motion has been signed by a total of 81 MPs.
