Proceeding contribution from Baroness Berger (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 3 November 2010. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Higher Education.
Higher Education
My hon. Friend has made exactly the point I wanted to make, so I thank him. Many of my constituents talk to me now about the challenges they face because of their current debts, when fees are only a third of those proposed by the new Government. Access to higher education should be about students' ability, not the ability to pay or willingness to shoulder thousands of pounds of debt. That is my greatest concern.
