Proceeding contribution from Lord Lucas (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 28 June 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Higher Education White Paper.


Higher Education White Paper

Does my noble friend agree that the practice of cross-subsidisation must now end? It may have been acceptable, when it was just government money, to take £5,000 from the money provided for a humanities course and give it to a student doing an engineering course. Now, when we are asking a humanities graduate to pay £9,000, it is surely totally unacceptable to take half that money and spend it on an engineering student.
