Proceeding contribution from Jonathan Ashworth (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 28 June 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Higher Education White Paper.


Higher Education White Paper

Does the Minister agree that higher education should be one of our greatest exports? Over many years, thousands of students have come over to study at the two universities in Leicester, yet with his comments on contact hours, the mess over student visas and the cuts to the teaching budget, more and more international students will choose institutions in Australia, Singapore and the USA instead of the UK. Is he not concerned about that?
