HC Deb 16 February 2000 vol 344 c598W
20. Mr. St. Aubyn

To ask the Secretary of State for Wales what recent discussions he has had with members of the Welsh Assembly on the funding of students at universities in Wales. [108931]

Mr. Hanson

I recently met with the National Assembly for Wales Secretary for Education and Training, when we discussed a number of issues including the funding of students at universities in Wales. Mr. Middlehurst has said that he will announce in due course increased help for students at higher education institutions in Wales through the Assembly's Higher Education Student Access funds.
