HC Deb 01 December 1980 vol 995 c6W
55. Mr. Farr

asked the Lord Privy Seal if he will make a statement on the facilities provided to enable students from Zimbabwe to continue their education in the United Kingdom.

Mr. Neil Marten

Zimbabwean students who were studying in this country at the time of independence on awards made under our training programme will continue to receive support until the completion of the courses for which their awards were given. New awards may be financed, at the request of the Zimbabwe Government, from the £75 million allocated to Zimbabwe at independence.
