Early day motion tabled by primary sponsor Anne Campbell (Labour), on Thursday, 2 December 2004, in the House of Commons. It is signed by 152 members in total.
INTERNATIONAL STUDENT VISA CHARGES
That this House notes existing charges for international student visas and the Home Office consultation on the review of charges for immigration applications; further notes that international students contribute five billion pounds a year to the UK economy; believes that international students make an invaluable contribution to student life, education and research at UK universities; further believes that increasing visa charges will place a greater financial burden on international students and hinder the Prime Minister's initiative to attract more international students to the UK; and calls on the Government to grant an exemption from visa charges to international students studying in the UK.
