HC Deb 26 November 1974 vol 882 c120W
Mr. Edge

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science (1) if, in his examination of fees in further education, he will consider reducing the tuition fees payable by overseas students to universities and other institutions of higher education to the same level as that chargeable to British students;

(2) if, in his examination of fees in further education, he will consider reducing the fees charged to overseas students in university hostels and halls of residence to the same level as those charged to British students.

Mr. Prentice

All aspects of fees in higher and further education are being reviewed. I am not aware, however, of any differences between home and overseas students in charges for university hostels and halls of residence.
