Proceeding contribution from Earl Attlee (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 22 March 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Student Visas.


Student Visas

My Lords, the noble Lord makes an important point about the difference between higher and further education. I would make the point that there are private sector further education colleges that are perfectly respectable. Not every single one is bogus. However, that is where most of the problems lie. The noble Lord pleaded for no more consultations. Unfortunately, that is outside my gift and that of the Home Office, on behalf of which I am speaking.
