Tuition Fees: EU Students

Proceeding contribution from Thangam Debbonaire (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 29 April 2019. It occurred during Urgent question on Tuition Fees: EU Students.

The Minister says he wants us to continue to enjoy the current benefits of our EU membership but after we have left the EU and that he wants us to vote for a withdrawal agreement to end discrimination against international students, but there is absolutely nothing stopping him today ruling out this increase in fees for EU students and the wider international student body. It matters greatly that we can attract people but also offer our young people those opportunities in EU countries. Does he not understand that his failure to rule out these increases today will have an impact on the decisions of students for 2019-20 in both the EU and the wider international student body?
