EU Students
- Question
- To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Skills pursuant to the answer of 21 June 2005, Official Report, column 1006W, on EU students, what estimate she has made of the likely value of deferred fee payments that will not be recovered from EU students who return to their home countries after graduation; and what the procedures are which will be put in place to minimise the risk of default.
- Answer
-
I refer the hon. Member to the answer given on 29 June 2005, Official Report, columns 1633–34W, which sets out the resource cost of loans to such students. As set out in the answers given on 21 June 2005, Official Report, column 1006W and 29 June 2005, Official Report, columns 1633–34W, we will not be able to collect payment through the UK tax system for EU borrowers who return to their home country: the Student Loans Company will establish a schedule of payments to be made and we anticipate relying on EU Council Regulation 44/2001 in the cases of defaulting students.
