Higher Education and Research Bill

Proceeding contribution from Wes Streeting (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 26 April 2017. It occurred during Debate on bills on Higher Education and Research Bill.

I am grateful to the Minister for giving way, but he is being rather selective with the statistics, because the UK is losing market share across the world when it comes to international students. In fact, the Higher Education Statistics Agency shows that the UK has seen a reduction of more than 50% in students coming to the UK from India. More than half of international students in the UK say that they do not feel welcome. Does he recognise the scale of that problem?
