HC Deb 23 November 2000 vol 357 cc301-2W
24. Tony Wright

To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Employment when he plans to introduce an ombudsman for higher education. [138386]

Mr. Wicks

The Committee of Vice Chancellors and Principals (CVCP) will give the Government its proposals for the reform of student complaints procedures at the end of the year. I understand an ombudsman is among the options the Committee is reviewing. We shall consider carefully the implications of the Committee's proposals for the Government.
