Proceeding contribution from Stephen Williams (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 15 March 2007. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Higher Education.


Higher Education

Before the Minister draws too many firm conclusions from the socio-economic data derived from the UCAS collation of statistics, will he concede that the biggest group in the data is unknowns, because students do not have to tell UCAS which social group they come from? How can we be so certain that the proportion from lower socio-economic groups is going up?
