Proceeding contribution from Baroness Verma (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 8 May 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Sale of Student Loans Bill.


Sale of Student Loans Bill

Returning to the two amendments tabled in my name, it is important for clarity to the purchaser that the company from which they are purchasing is placed in the Bill. I believe that putting ““agent”” in, because somebody might purchase them in future, gives great uncertainty to the sale. It is worrying that the Government are not prepared to put ““the Student Loans Company””. I know that it is only a small change, but it is useful for future purchasers to know that they are dealing directly with the Student Loans Company because that, as far as I am aware, is the body through which these sales will take place.
