Tuition Fees — 25 Jun 2003 at 15:50

The Aye-voters failed to pass a Conservative opposition day motion.
That this House notes the views of the National Union of Students about university tuition fees; and believes that the consequence of the Government's proposal relating to tuition fees will be to act as a severe deterrent to many students from hard-working but less well-off families, who will not be eligible for the £1,000 maintenance grant, from applying to university.
