HC Deb 04 February 1975 vol 885 c458W
Mr. Robin F. Cook

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science why properties let by educational institutions have been exempt from the extension of the rent freeze.

Mr. Prentice

The current student grant is intended to enable students to pay economic charges for board and residence, without regard to the rent freeze. The grant is to be reviewed annually, and I am now considering the grant level for the academic year 1975–76.
