That this House notes with concern the new charges of up to ??250 which were introduced by the Home Office on 1st August to process applications to extend permission to stay in the United Kingdom; further notes that all non-European Union international students will be subject to this charge each time they apply to extend their stay in the United Kingdom; condemns the Government for the way in which these charges were introduced with no consultation with universities, colleges or student organisations and with only 21 days notice given; notes that the charges will not result in an improved service with the Home Office still aiming to process applications within a maximum of 13 weeks; is concerned that these charges will hit many international students studying in the United Kingdom many of whom are still unaware of the change and who will have to pay the charge up to four or five times during their studies; believes the new charges run the risk of damaging the United Kingdom's long tradition of attracting students from across the world to our colleges and universities and therefore runs contrary to the Government's stated policy of attracting increased numbers of international students into the United Kingdom; and congratulates the Edinburgh University Students' Association along with the many other student organisations across the country for their campaigns seeking a reversal in this damaging policy and a full review of the way student visa applications are handled by the Home Office.

That this House notes with great concern the current administrative chaos that has delayed payments of the new tax credits, including for those who applied over six months ago; regrets that concerned applicants and honourable Members have experienced considerable difficulty in contacting the Inland Revenue via dedicated helplines; is further concerned that far fewer than the nine in 10 eligible families will actually claim the money to which they are entitled, even once the initial administrative problems are resolved; calls upon the Government to resolve these administrative problems as a matter of urgency, and in particular to prioritise payments to former recipients of working families tax credit and disabled person's tax credit; and further calls upon the Government to undertake a full investigation into the reasons for the unacceptable delays which have been experienced by far too many working families.
