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

My hon. Friend talks about how much they will be paying, but we should remember that no student will pay up front. What will be crucial in determining their repayments is their earnings, and because we have raised the threshold, their monthly repayments, regardless of the university fee, will actually be lower under our proposed system than under the system we inherited from the Labour Government.
