OUTLINE OF THE CAREER OF FREDERICK SYDNEY DAINTON Frederick Sydney Dainton was bornin Sheffield on 11 November 1914, the ninth child of George and Mary Dainton. His father was a Master Mason. He was educated at the Central Secondary School for Boys, Sheffield, winning an Exhibition scholarship to St John’s College Oxford in 1933 (Goldsmiths’ Company Exhibition 1935), from where he graduated with First Class Honours in Chemistry in 1937. Dainton then moved to Sidney Sussex College, Cambridge for postgraduate research on reactions of simple gases, studying under R.G.W. Norrish. He was a Goldsmiths’ Company Senior Student, 1939 (Ph.D. 1940), before being appointed University Demonstrator in Chemistry 1944 and H.O. Jones Lecturer in Physical Chemistry 1946. He waselected a Fellow of St Catharine’s College Cambridge in 1945. It was at Cambridge that Dainton met Barbara Hazlitt Wright, a student at Newnham College. They were married in 1942. In 1950 Dainton returned to Yorkshire as Professor of Physical Chemistry at the University of Leeds. He stayed in Leeds for fifteen years, a period particularly productive both in terms of building up the departmentinto a leading centre of research in physical chemistry and in pursuing his own research. In recognition of his contributions to reaction kinetics Dainton was elected to the Fellowship of the Royal Society in 1957. Although Dainton’s initial research field had been photochemistry (studying under R.G.W. Norrish), and he wasto retain an interest in this field throughout his research career, he had broadened his studies thereafter to the study of combustion, chain reactions and polymerisation kinetics. As his Royal Society citation recorded, Dainton’s research interests spanned many areas of physical chemistry. In his own estimation he regarded his main contributions as being in the following areas: the kinetics and thermodynamics of addition polymerisation, the kinetics of cationic and anionic polymerisation, redox reactions, photochlorination, the reactivity of oxygen atomsin singlet state, photochemicalelectron transfer, quantum mechanical tunnelling and radiation chemistry. In 1965 Dainton accepted an invitation to serve as Vice-Chancellor of the University of Nottingham. He took up post at a particularly turbulent time for universities worldwide and the student disturbances at Nottingham proved a considerable challenge. Of his achievements during this F.S. Dainton NCUACS 1112/11/02 6 period, Dainton wasparticularly proud of the establishment of the University’s Medical School, which was opened in 1970. Throughout his time at Nottingham Dainton maintained his links with active research work through his Honorary Directorship of the Cookridge Radiation Research Centre at Leeds. In 1969 Dainton was asked to become Chairman of the Council for Scientific Policy (of which he was already a member). While not a full-time post, Dainton felt its demands could not be combined with those of the Vice-Chancellorship. He accepted the Chairmanship of the Council, resigning from Nottingham, and also took the opportunity to return to academic research and teaching as Dr Lees’ Professor of Chemistry at Oxford. He held the Chair for three years. The Council for Scientific Policy was abolished in 1972, Dainton becomingthe first Chairman ofits successor body the Advisory Board for the Research Councils 1972-1973. He was then invited by the Secretary of State for Education and Science (Margaret Thatcher) to become Chairman of the University Grants Committee in succession to Sir Kenneth Berrill. Dainton took up this post shortly before a change of government and during a worsening economic crisis. His term was marked by the introduction of government austerity measures that markedly constrained the ongoing expansion of universities. The difficulties facing the higher education sector notwithstanding, during Dainton’s Chairmanship the number of medical students increased significantly and he successfully encouraged industrial sponsorships of engineering courses through new undergraduate courses with an emphasis on the needs of manufacturing industry. Dainton retired from the University Grants Council in 1978. Dainton was appointed to the National Radiological Protection Board in 1977, serving to 1985 (from 1978 at Chairman). In 1978 he became Chairmanof the British Library Board. His association with the national library can be said to date from his Chairmanship of the National Libraries Committee, 1967-1969. Dainton arrived at the British Library at a crucial moment. site for the Library had been acquired on Euston Roadat St Pancras but there wasstill considerable opposition to the move. The difficulties were exacerbated when the Labour party lost the 1979 election, as the incoming Conservative Government was not committed to the project. Dainton met Margaret Thatcher, the Prime Minister, in September 1980 and this face-to-face meeting was important in persuading her of the case for the new site. Dainton served as Chairmanof the British Library until 1985 and remained in touch with developments thereafter. Also in 1978 Dainton had been invited to become Chancellor of the University of Sheffield, a post he held to 1997. As a native of the city of Sheffield this appointment was particularly appropriate. Dainton took a keen interest in the University and was particularly conscious of his responsibilities at the University degree congregations, delivering a different address at each. Dainton held many other positions and was active well into his ninth decade. These included the Chairmanship of the Royal Postgraduate Medical School 1980-1989 (serving as President from 1989 F.S. Dainton NCUACS 112/11/02 7 to 1997) and membership of the Court of Governors of the London School of Economics 1980-1997 (Chairman of the Library Panel from 1986). Dainton had joined the Goldsmiths’ Company’s Court of Assistants in 1973 and in 1982-1983 he served as Prime Warden of the Company. He also chaired its Education Committee. It is interesting to note that Dainton’s association with the Goldsmiths’ Company dated from his undergraduate days in Oxford when the Company awarded him a scholarship, with a postgraduate scholarship following in 1939. This brief outline of Dainton’s career gives some indication of the range ofhis activities in the fields of science, university administration, academic standards and public service. However, he made a great many contributions additional to those principal commitments set out above. Government advisory service included membership of the Central Advisory Council for Science and Technology 1967-1970, the Council for Scientific Policy (CSP) from 1965 to 1972 (Chairman from 1969) and the CSP’s successor body, the Advisory Board for the Research Councils (Dainton wasits first Chairman 1972-1973). In the 1960s he served on twosignificant working parties examining issuesrelating to the ‘Swing Away from Science’. Thefirst was the Enquiry into the Flow of Candidates in Science and Technology into Higher Education, established by the CSP under the chairmanship of Dainton in February 1965, to examine the causes of and remedies for the shortage of young people studying science and engineering at university. It reported in February 1968. He was also a member of the Working Group on Manpower Parameters for scientific growth, established under the chairmanship of Lord Swann in December 1965, which reported in September 1968. As Chairman of the CSP Dainton was involved in formulating policy fundamental to the planning and organisation of government-funded science in the following decade and beyond. Healso chaired the CSP Working Group on Research Organisation which contributed to A Framework for Government Research and Development(the Rothschild Report). Dainton also chaired the CSP’s Working Group which advised on how the recommendations in this report (and the customer/contractor principle in particular) should be applied. Dainton was created a Life Baron in 1986, adopting the title Baron Dainton of Hallam Moors, an upland area very near Sheffield. He did not adopt a party affiliation but sat on the cross-benches. Dainton was an active member of Parliament. He served on the House of Lords Select Committee on Science and Technology, chairing three influential sub-committees, the Academic Research Careers Sub-Committee, the Systematic Biology Research Sub-Committee and the Forensic Science Sub-Committee. As a member of the House of Lords, he also made significant contributions to discussion of higher education policy, and medical teaching andtraining. Dainton was accorded a great many honours and awards. These included over 25 honorary degrees from universities worldwide. Overseas honours included Foreign Membership of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences, the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, the Academy of Sciences, Gottingen, and the American Philosophical Society. Dainton was an Honorary Fellow of St F.S. Dainton NCUACS 112/11/02 8 Catharine’s College Cambridge, St John’s College Oxford, Goldsmiths’ College London, Queen Mary and Westfield College London, the London School of Economics, Birkbeck College London and the Royal Postgraduate Medical School. He waselected to the Fellowship of the Royal Society in 1957 (Davy Medal 1969, Faraday Medal 1974). He was knighted in 1971 and elevated to the peerage as Baron Dainton of Hallam Moors in 1986. Dainton died on 5 December 1997. He was survived by his wife, Barbara Dainton with whom he had a son and two daughters. For Dainton’s own accountof his life and career see his autobiography Doubts and Certainties: A Personal Memoir of the 20th Century (ed. by Barbara Dainton) Sheffield Academic Press, 2001.

DESCRIPTION OF THE COLLECTION The material is presented in the order given in the List of contents. Dainton had full and varied career making contributions to many areas of national life and this is very well represented in the collection. His widespread and longstanding interests in fields such as science policy, higher education, libraries, medical teaching and training are documented in morethan one section. Section A, Biographical and personal, offers significant documentation of Dainton’s life and career from childhood to the end of his life. There is a draft of his autobiography, together with many autobiographical and biographical accounts. Schooldays are well documented by material relating to the Central Secondary School for Boys, Sheffield and its Shakespeare Society in particular. There is material on his undergraduate education, chiefly notes on lectures and experiments, and a significant sequence of material covering Dainton’s career and some of the many honours and awards he was accorded. Other material documents Dainton’s family background, his interest in the history of his discipline and some of the keyfigures within it, and his continuing devotion to the City of Sheffield. There are also photographs, taken at various stages in Dainton’slife from boyhood to the 1990s, and audio and video tape recordings. Section B, Research, documents Dainton’s own research work 1937-1972. While it includes notebooks and research notes covering his periods at Cambridge, Leeds and Oxford, coverage of Dainton’s research interests is patchy. There is good documentation of early work on photochemistry from the late 1930s to early 1950s, photochlorination and polymerisation from the period of Leeds, and later research work (1965-1970) at the Cookridge High Energy Radiation Centre. There is also significant material relating to Dainton’s wartime research on incendiaries, including a set of reports. F.S. Dainton NCUACS 112/11/02 9 This section also includes research work of D.H. Lea, 1943-1949. Lea was based at the Strangeways Research Laboratory, Cambridge and Dainton contacted him after reading his book Actions of Radiations on Living Cells, 1946. Lea died young and after his death Dainton was given access to someof his research records. At the end of the section is a copy of Dainton’s Ph.D. thesis ‘The Mechanism of Gaseous Explosion’ (University of Cambridge, 1940), together with a numberof Ph.D. theses completed by research students and colleagues at Cambridge. Section C, Universities of Oxford and Cambridge, brings together material from two distinct periods in Dainton’s career. Thefirst period covers the period from his graduation from Oxford and move to Cambridge in 1937-1938 to his move to Leeds in 1950. It includes a copy of Dainton’s undergraduate thesis ‘The Spectroscopy and Photochemistry of the Alkyl Nitrites, Nitro compounds and nitrates’ but is principally teaching material. The second componentof the section is teaching material from Dainton’s period as Dr Lee’s Professor of Chemistry at Oxford, where he returned in 1970. Section D, University of Leeds, brings together teaching material from Dainton’s years at Leeds, 1950-1965 (this includes some earlier lecture notes from Cambridge and a little later material which may relate to university teaching as Dr Lee’s Professor of Chemistry), material relating to the administration of research in the Department of Physical Chemistry and correspondence and papers relating to Dainton’s Honorary Directorship of the Cookridge High Energy Radiation Centre. There are also manuscript notes for Dainton’s addressesto first year undergraduates at Leeds, introducing the University and universitylife to them. Section E, University of Nottingham, provides documentation covering the period of Dainton’s Vice- Chancellorship 1965-1970. His term of office coincided with a period of prolonged studentunrestin the UK and throughout the world and most of the material in this section relates to this. There is correspondence, student and university material including notices and papers for meetings, reports, press releases and statements, etc. relating to protests at Nottingham and the response of the University administration. There is extensive background material on unrest at university campuses in the UK and worldwide. There is also material relating to the establishment of the University Medical School, which Dainton regarded as oneofhis principal achievements. The section also has correspondence and papers relating to B.H. Tolley’s book The History of the University of Nottingham, 2001, including drafts of chapters on Dainton’s term of office. Dainton’s closeties to the University of Nottingham meant that when disputes arose in the mid-1990s relating to the managementof the University, some of those unhappy with developments looked to him for advice and support. Section F, University Grants Committee, covers Dainton’s chairmanship of the UGC 1973-1978. There are correspondence and papers relating to the cuts in university expenditure imposed by the F.S. Dainton NCUACS 112/11/02 10 government and the consequentdifficulties of maintaining long-term planning, and relations with the Committee of Vice-Chancellors and Principals, trades unions, individual universities and the four Secretaries of State for Education and Science with whom he had to deal (including Margaret Thatcher and Shirley Williams). There is a good record of the manyvisitations to higher education institutions throughout the UK conducted by Dainton and other members of the UGC, including formal reports and Dainton’s own manuscript notes. There is also documentation of his encouragementof industrial sponsorship of new undergraduate engineering courses. Section G, University of Sheffield, includes material relating to Dainton’s appointment and installation as Chancellor of the University of Sheffield in 1978 (succeeding the politician ‘Rab’ Butler), a number of managerial issues with which he wasinvolved including the Vice-Chancellorship of the University, and University prizes. The section also has good documentation of Dainton’s speeches at degree congregations. Dainton was very conscious of his responsibilities at these occasions and delivered a different address at each. There are copies of his speeches, together with his collection of quotations, articles, press cuttings etc for themes and anecdotes. Section H, House of Lords, has good coverage of Dainton’s work as a member of Parliament from 1986. Documented here is his service on the House of Lords Select Committee on Science and Technology and on its Subcommittees including those chaired by him - the Academic Research Careers Sub-Committee, the Systematic Biology Research Sub-Committee and Forensic Science Sub-Committee. There is also excellent coverage of his interest in and contributions to Education Bills and Health Bills passing through Parliament. Material includes notes for and drafts of Dainton’s contributions to debates, correspondence with colleagues and other interested parties on issues under discussion, annotated copies of Parliamentary literature, briefing notes and background material. Section J, Societies and organisations, is the largest in the collection. It documents Dainton’s involvement with 49 UK, overseas and international organisations and presents documentation of some of Dainton’s mostsignificant contributions to public life. Documentation of his advisory role to government includes the Central Advisory Council for Science and Technology, the Committee on Manpower Resources for Science and Technology Working Group on Manpower Parameters For Scientific Growth, the Council for Scientific Policy and the Working Group Enquiry into the Flow of Candidates in Science and Technology into Higher Education. There are minutes of meetings, draft and final reports, correspondence with other members, Dainton’s manuscript notes, background material. Also well documented are his contributions to the library world including chairmanship of the National Libraries Committee, 1967-1971 and the British Library Board 1978-1985. The British Library material includes Dainton’s own collection of key papers from the period, such as the plans for the new library, opposition following the Conservative election victory in 1979 and Dainton’s very successful advocacyof the project, including his meeting with Margaret Thatcher. F.S. Dainton NCUACS 112/11/02 11 The section also includes documentation of many of Dainton’s other posts and responsibilities. These include serving as a Trustee of the Wolfson Foundation 1979-1988, the Prime Wardenship of the Goldsmiths’ Company 1982-1983 and service on the London School of Economics Court of Governors 1980-1997. He was on a number of LSE committees and chaired the Library Panel, to which most of the material relates. Dainton was also Chairman of the Royal Postgraduate Medical School 1980-1989 and President to 1997. Much of the material concerns the proposed establishment of a national centre for clinical research. Dainton’s interest in medicaltraining is also represented in material of the University of London City and East London Medical Education Group, which he also chaired. International and overseas commitments documentedinclude the establishmentof the International Federation of Associations for the Advancement of Science and Technology; Dainton was Chairman of the Inaugural Meeting in Hong Kong in 1991. In 1978 Dainton was personally requested by the Prime Minister of Singapore, Lee Kuan Yew, to undertake a review of higher education in the country. He visited the universities of Singapore the following year and advised the creation of the National University of Singapore. Dainton made a number of return visits to review progress. The material includes his notes on higher education in Singapore, reports, background material and speechesdelivered during his visits. Also documented here are a number of charitable causes Dainton supported as a Patron or in an advisory capacity. Theseinclude the Arthritis and Rheumatism Council, the Campaign for Oxford, the Educational Broadcasting Services Trust, Edward Boyle Memorial Trust, Nuffield Orthopaedic Centre Appeal, the Jacqueline du Pré Memorial Fund (St Hilda’s College Oxford) and St Luke’s Hospice, Sheffield. Section K, Publications, includes a set of Dainton’s offprints of published articles (those 1937-1973 are in bound volumes), and a sequence of drafts and related material for publications or works intended for publication. These cover articles on science policy, higher education and library policy as well as scientific articles in the field of physical chemistry. The largest single bodies of material relate to a planned but unpublished book on radiation chemistry (with E. Collinson) and to Dainton’s guide Choosing a British University A Guide for Candidates in the United States for Fulbright Awards and Marshall Scholarships (London, 1981). Dainton’s widecircle of friends and colleagues meant he was frequently asked to write obituaries and memoirs, and these are presented in a separate sequence. Theyinclude G.B. Kistiakowsky, N.N. Semenov and S. Zuckerman. Thereis also a setof Dainton’s book reviews. Section L, Lectures, presents a chronological sequence of material, principally notes and drafts, relating to his invitation and public lectures 1942-1996. Dainton was much soughtafter as a speaker F.S. Dainton NCUACS 112/11/02 12 on a wide variety of topics, relating not only to his scientific work but to all aspects of public life with which he wasinvolved. Consequently there are lectures on his scientific research and non-technical lectures on libraries, higher education, medical research and education, research and development, scientific education and manpower, and science policy. Among the lectures documented are Dainton’s lectures as Arthur D. Little Visiting Professor of Chemistry, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1959; his 1961 Baker Lectures on Radiation Chemistry, Cornell University, New York; the Sir Ludwig Mond Lecture ‘Science in the Universities: Salvation or Damnation: the Pursuit of Science and Human Curiosity’, Manchester 1970; the 1981 Rede Lecture on ‘British Universities: Purposes, Problems and Pressures’; the Rock Carling Lecture on ‘Universities and the National Health Service’, Sheffield, 1983; the 3rd Edward Boyle Memorial Lecture ‘Knowledgeis our Destiny and Education is the Tool’, Royal Society of Arts, 1987; and the 1st British Library Dainton Lecture ‘Knowledge is power: but how canwefind what we need’, 1987. There is also a sequenceof notes for shorter speeches and addresses 1957-1997. Section M, Visits and conferences, presents some of the visits Dainton made and conferences attended 1946-1997. It includes visits which were primarily scientific in nature, such as those to Canada and the USAin the 1940s and 1950s(including his Arthur D. Little Visiting Professorship at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology), to visits which bore more on his interest in education policy andlibraries, such ashis visit to Japan in 1973. Much of the material here relates to extended visits, often covering several weeks and taking in more than one country. On many occasions Dainton was accompanied by his wife, who often made independenttrips on her own during the visits. Dainton combined his attendance at conferences, discussions with colleagues, lecturing and professional engagements with sight-seeing andthis is reflected in the material. Section N, Correspondence, is not extensive. Much of Dainton’s correspondence was kept by him with the material to which it related, rather than being kept as a separate sequence, and Dainton’s changes of career meant much earlier correspondence was not retained by him. The correspondence hereis presented in a chronological sequence weighted predominantly to the last years ofhis life. It reflects a wide range of Dainton’s interests including scientific research, higher education, libraries and the House of Lords. The sequence also includes some personal correspondence. There are also references and recommendations, again mainly relating to his last years. Section O, Photographic slides, presents Dainton’s collection of slides of graphs, figures, calculations etc. used asillustrations for lectures. They are all roughly 2 inch square size and mostareglass. Few are dated. There is also an index of correspondents F.S. Dainton NCUACS 1112/11/02 13 LOCATION OF OTHER MATERIAL Papersrelating to the National Libraries Committee are held at the British Library. Dainton’s medals and Honorary Degreecertificates are intended to be passed to Sheffield University Library.

E.64-E.78 POST VICE-CHANCELLORSHIP MATERIAL 1993-1997 Dainton’s close ties to the University of Nottingham meant that when disputes arose in the mid-1990srelating to the managementof the University, some of those unhappy with developments looked to him for advice and support. A number of these disputes related to the handling of affairs by the Vice- Chancellor, a matter where Dainton’s experience was thought particularly useful. Between 1994 and 1997 Dainton advised Alan Prichard, Emeritus Professor of Law at the University of Nottingham. Matters under dispute included the dismissal in 1993 of a member ofstaff who subsequently appealed for unfair dismissal and the 1994 purchase of Clumber Lodge and. The mosthigh-profile case, however, revolved around the suicide of Professor David Regan, Head of the Politics Department at the University. The police concluded his death was the result of a domestic problems but Mrs Regan claimed her husband’s suicide was a responseto the University’s managementstyle and to developments in higher education in the UK more widely. The University rejected calls for an enquiry into the circumstances behind the death, despite pressure from many leading figures, including Dainton. F.S.

Dainton NCUACS 112/11/02 108 SECTION F UNIVERSITY GRANTS COMMITTEE F.1-F.136 Dainton had first been invited to serve as Chairman of the University Grants Committee (UGC) in 1968. He declined and Sir Kenneth Berrill was appointed instead. At the end of Berrill’s term in 1973 Dainton was again approached, andthis time accepted. He took office on 1 October 1973. Two days later he wastold that all university capital expenditure had been cancelled. As the economiccrisis deepenedfurther real-term cuts in expenditure were made. His term of office was not helped by having to deal with no fewer than four Secretaries of State for Education and Science, including Margaret Thatcher (1970-1974) and Shirley Williams (1976-1979). Under Dainton the number of medical students increasedsignificantly and he encouragedindustrial sponsorships of engineering courses. At F.133-F.136 is material celebrating the progress of the Dainton Enhanced Engineering courses. These were established by the UGC following a proposal by Dainton to set up undergraduate courses with an emphasis on the needs of manufacturing industry. They combined the study of engineering with other subjects likely to be of use to future production managersin industry, such as accountancy,industrial relations etc. The UGC wasreplaced in 1989 by the University Funding Council. The event was marked by a valedictory dinner (F.132).

J.73-J.175 BRITISH LIBRARY 1979-1997 In 1978 Dainton was appointed Chairman of the British Library Board in succession to Lord Eccles. He arrived at one of the mostdifficult times in the history of the Library. A new site had been acquired on Euston Road at St Pancras but there was considerable opposition to the move from the Reading Room atthe British Museum (and numerous other sites around London). The difficulties were exacerbated when the Labour party lost the 1979 election, not committed to the project. A number of prominent Conservative supporters, including Professor Hugh Thomas of the think-tank the Centre for Policy Studies, opposed the new development. Dainton met Margaret Thatcher, the Prime Minister, personally in September 1980 and this was importantin persuading herof the case for the newsite. Conservative Government was_ as the incoming Dainton served as Chairman until 1985. but Dainton remained in touch with developments.

In March 1993 the British Library Board set up a new body,the British Library Grants for Cataloguing and Preservation Awards Committee, which made £125,000 available annually. Dainton chaired this Committee from its establishment. Material relating to Dainton’s Trusteeship of the Wolfson Foundation is at J.907-J.965.

J.227-J.398 COUNCIL FOR SCIENTIFIC POLICY 1967-1973 Dainton was appointed a member of the Council for Scientific Policy (CSP) on its establishment in January 1965. Its terms of reference were: ‘To advise the Secretary of State for Education and Science in the exercise of his responsibility for the formation and execution of Governmentscientific policy’. He was appointed chairman in 1969, succeeding Sir Harrie Massey. The Council was replaced in 1972 by the Advisory Board for the Research Councils, of which Dainton wasthe first Chairman 1972-1973 (see J.1). The bulk of the material relates to the Report A Framework for Government Research and Development (Green and White Papers Cmnds 4814 and 5046). This comprised two reports. The first was a personal report by Lord Rothschild, head of the Central Policy Review Staff on ‘The organisation and management of research and development’, commissioned in 1970. The second wasa report ‘The future of the Research Council system’ by a CSP Working Group on Research Organisation chaired by Dainton ‘to advise the Secretary of State ... on the mosteffective arrangements for organising and supporting pure and applied scientific research and postgraduate training’. This had also been established in 1970. After the publication of the Green Paper containing the two, not entirely compatible, reports, the CSP established a Working Group (later known as the Preparatory Group) ‘to advise the CSP on the formulation of views on the Green Paper in general and the application of the customer/contractor principle to the Research Councils in particular. This was chaired by Dainton. Dainton also chaired a Working Group enquiring into the flow of candidates in science and technology into higher education (the Swing Away from Science), set up by the CSP in 1965. See J.966-J.998.

In January 1986, faced with an increasingly difficult financial situation, a crisis in clinical research and increasing pressure on general hospitals to deliver more efficient patient care, the Clinical Research Centre Committee chaired by Sir Michael Stoker reported to the MRC (the Stoker Report, J.780) that the CRC should be merged with the RPMS and the National Institute for Medical Research into a National Centre for Clinical Research ona singlesite.

This would complement the city’s existing museums and galleries, which were also part of the regeneration scheme. Following the success of the bid the Sheffield Galleries and MuseumsTrust was established as an independent charitable body to be responsible for the existing galleries and museums(taking over from the city council) and the new development. Dainton was a memberof the ‘Hallam Group’ which was involved in the plans for Sheffield’s regeneration and had an active interest in its work.

An original plan for merger had been mooted in 1969 and a Joint Policy Committee established under Sir Harry Melville. Little progress was made, however, and in 1982 the new body wasestablished by the University of London to resume the planning for merger. Dainton was appointed the independent Chairmanof the Group. From the beginning of the Group’s work, St Bartholomew’s expressed reservations about implementing the original BQL plan, arguing that the academic workcarried out in the Medical College was expanding and would be weakened bya loss of the pre-clinical school. It also felt that there were other ways to build links between theinstitutions. After further discussions and meetings, in November 1985, St Bartholomew’s withdrew from the scheme and the Group was disbanded. In October 1986 a new plan was put forward to join the three pre-clinical schools in a confederation. In 1995 a Bill was presented to Parliament to merge St Bartholomew’s and London Hospital Medical Colleges with Queen Mary and Westfield College. F.S.
