Business question from Stephen Ladyman (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 4 March 2010. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.


Business of the House

The teaching of English as a foreign language is a vital business activity in my constituency, but it is under threat because of proposed changes to visa rules, which mean that students who want to upgrade their language skills before going to university would have to return home and apply for another visa to come back again. Can we debate this matter? Failing that, will my right hon. and learned Friend nudge her colleagues in the Home Office and ask them to rethink those proposals?
