§ Mrs. MahonTo ask the Secretary of State for Education what assessment he has made of the numbers of undergraduate university students taking up employment during term time; and if he will increase student grants and end student loans.
§ Mr. BoswellThe student income and expenditure survey currently under way on behalf of the education Departments seeks information about the income of full-time and sandwich students, including term-time earnings. My right hon. Friend has no plans to change the current student support arrangements which work well and which have provided substantially increased resources to students.
