HC Deb 30 April 1984 vol 59 c12W
Mr. Peter Bruinvels

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science if he will provide a breakdown by nationality of the numbers of foreign students in full-time and part-time education in each university and polytechnic.

Mr. Brooke

This information is not available centrally.

Mr. Peter Bruinvels

asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science what is the current cost to public funds arising from foreign students at each university and polytechnic.

Mr. Brooke

Tuition fees for students from abroad (other than those from the European Community) are, as a general principle, expected to cover the full cost of the education provided.
