Student Visas

Proceeding contribution from Lord Sharma (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 6 June 2013. It occurred during Backbench debate on Student Visas.

My hon. Friend is being very generous in giving way. Should we not be explaining to the public in more detail what the net migration figure is made up of and disaggregating it? We can debate whether student numbers should be taken out, but clearly we must explain each of the components, because that is not widely understood.
