§ Mr. ChaytorTo ask the Secretary of State for International Development what proposals she has to increase opportunities for appropriately qualified young people from developing countries to attend British universities. [5170]
§ Mr. FoulkesIn financial year 1995–96, the last year for which we have figures, we spent some £69.8 million on over 9,000 scholars and trainees who studied in the UK. I have no proposals to increase this expenditure at present but we welcome any suggestions from Members and others as part of the White Paper consultation.
