Student Visa Charges

EDM number 670 in 2004-05, proposed by Tim Collins on 07/02/2005.

That this House notes with concern the Government's plan for a substantial increase in overseas student visa charges; believes that the increase is a consequence of the Government's failure to tackle illegal immigration through language schools and that as a result higher enforcement costs are being passed on to bona fide students; and calls on the Government to carry out a detailed assessment of the impact of its plans on universities in the UK before taking any further action.

This motion has been signed by a total of 59 MPs.
