27. Mr. Lambie

asked the Secretary of State for Scotland what representations he has received following his recent announcement of a 2 per cent. increase in grants to students in higher education establishments in Scotland.

Since 16 December 1985 I have received representations about the student grant settlement for 1986–87 in the form of letters or petitions on behalf of about 1,200 students.
