Proceeding contribution from Lord Willetts (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Friday, 21 October 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on Master's Degrees (Minimum Standards) Bill.
Master's Degrees (Minimum Standards) Bill
Perhaps this is the moment to engage that point. The hon. Gentleman has to offer evidence that the arrangements are causing widespread confusion. We have seen no such evidence. All the material that is available on the websites of the universities of Oxford and Cambridge makes it absolutely clear that their MAs are not qualifications obtained by postgraduate study. The QAA's documents make clear the status of these qualifications, and we are not aware of the widespread confusion and misunderstanding that the hon. Gentleman claims to have identified.
