Proceeding contribution from Lord Willetts (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 28 June 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Higher Education White Paper.
Higher Education White Paper
This goes back to an earlier question. Let me make it absolutely clear that one of the proposals in the White Paper is to make it easier for employers and charities to sponsor additional places at university. That is an additional flexibility in the system. Already, 6,000 university places are sponsored by employers in that way. However, it is not our intention that these proposals be abused by people to purchase places at university that they could not achieve on academic merit.
