Alternatives To Variable Top Up Fees
EDM number 7 in 2003-04, proposed by Ian Gibson on 26/11/2003.
That this House recognises the widespread concern about the effects variable tuition fees and the perception of debt may have on access to universities, particularly among students from families on modest or lower middle incomes; notes that there are alternative models of funding higher education, which the Department for Education and Skills has considered and which do not involve variable top-up fees; and calls on the Government, therefore, to publish full details of these alternatives to facilitate proper, informed debate and understanding before proceeding with legislation to reform the higher education funding system.
This motion has been signed by a total of 192 MPs, 8 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
