§ Mr. Christopher Priceasked the Secretary of State for Education and Science if he will publish in the Official Report the terms of reference of the current review of the effect of full-cost fees on overseas students; what opportunities interested educational organisations will have for participating in this review; and when he expects to complete it.
§ Mr. Mark CarlisleMy Department, in conjunction with other Government Departments, is collecting and analysing data on overseas student enrolments over a period of years by type of institution, level of course and country of orgin. Preliminary data on enrolments last autumn have already been supplied to hon. Members and further data will be published in due course. Any review of the full cost fees policy would have to take into account these and subsequent years' data.
