Student Visas

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

Does the hon. Gentleman accept that not only have we had bogus colleges, but quite a lot of colleges have provided relatively low-value courses, be they in business, accounting or IT, where the incentive of being able to work part-time, stay on to work afterwards, bring dependants and potentially stay on has been much of the reason why international students have stayed, and that the Government have been right to crack down on that?
