Right Of Appeal For Overseas Students
EDM number 545 in 2005-06, proposed by Keith Vaz on 11/07/2005.
That this House fully supports the 120 vice-chancellors of UK universities in their objection to the plans to tighten visa rules for foreign students; notes that a change in the rules and charges for student visas is likely to deter ambitious students from choosing to study in the UK, which will impact negatively not only on the individual universities' budgets but on the UK economy at large; and urges the Government to consider the matter carefully before abolishing these and other visa appeal rights.
This motion has been signed by a total of 53 MPs.
