Proceeding contribution from Baroness May of Maidenhead (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 22 March 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Student Visas.


Student Visas

During the consultation, we had discussions with the Scottish Government and the Secretary of State for Scotland. He and I spoke about the concerns that Scottish universities had raised with him, one of which related to students who had an entrepreneurial idea and wished to stay on to launch a business. That is why we are ensuring that, within the post-study work rules, there will be a possibility to protect student entrepreneurs.
