Richard Burden: To ask the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry what assessment she has made of the importance of the (a) motor
sport and (b) performance engineering industries to the UK's industrial base. [195878]
Jacqui Smith: These industries form an important and highly successful part of the UK's industrial base. They employ some 40,000
people and have a sales value of £5 billion, over half of which is export sales.
The Motorsport Competitiveness Panel, which was co-chaired by my right hon. Friend the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry,
undertook a detailed assessment of the significance and future potential of the motor sport and performance engineering sectors. Its
report was published on 11 July 2003 and is available in the Libraries of the House.
The panel also made a number of recommendations to secure the future of these industries. We have pledged £16 million in
support of these actions, which include widening participation in motor sport and improving the provision of training and
qualifications.

Mr. Wiggin: To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department what plans he has to make it easier for non-EU students to work in
the UK after they have graduated provided they have graduated from a UK university, with particular reference to residency criteria.
[186817]
Mr. Browne: The Science and Engineering Graduate Scheme (SEGS), to be introduced on 29 October 2004, will allow non-EU
graduates from UK universities who have graduated in specific science and engineering courses to apply to remain in the UK to seek
work.
Participants on SEGS will be required to show that they have achieved a degree at 2:2 or above in such courses and that they can
maintain and accommodate themselves without recourse to public funds. Participants will be granted leave for one year and will be
able to live and work in any region of the UK. Participants on the scheme will be allowed to switch, at any time during the year, to
other managed migration categories provided they meet the criteria.
In summer 2005, a further pilot scheme (Fresh Talent: Scotland) should be introduced to allow third country national graduates from
Scottish universities to apply to stay in Scotland and look for work for up to two years.

Chris Grayling: To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Skills what proportion of higher education students studied
(a) physical sciences, (b) medicine, (c) dentistry, (d) engineering and technology and
(e) architecture, building and planning in (i) 1996-07 and (ii) 2002-03. [183268]
Alan Johnson: The available information is given in the table. A new method of allocating students to subject groups was introduced
in 2002/03, the effect of which was to decrease the number of students in the `combined' category and increase those who were
allocated to specific subjects. This means that the figures for 2002/03 are not directly comparable with those for earlier years so
the comparisons in the table have been made with 2001/02 instead.
