HC Deb 29 January 1998 vol 305 c368W
28. Rev. Martin Smyth

To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Employment what assessment he has made of the impact of proposed changes in funding for tertiary education on students from outside the United Kingdom attending United Kingdom establishments. [24209]

Dr. Howells

Overseas students from outside the European Union generally pay the full cost of their tuition and will be unaffected by the proposed new arrangements for the payment of tuition fees. Students from other EU countries will continue to be treated on the same basis as home students as far as fees are concerned.
