Proceeding contribution from Claire Curtis-Thomas (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 20 March 2008. It occurred during Debate on The United Kingdom and the Commonwealth.
The United Kingdom and the Commonwealth
I have much sympathy with what my honourable colleague is saying, and I want to reassure him that the UK standards authority is not adopting a punitive approach. The requirement to sit extra exams is often to ensure that international standards are complied with. Moreover, some countries do not accept British qualifications, unless the people who hold them do top-up exams.
