Student Fees

EDM number 1108 in 2008-09, proposed by Bob Spink on 17/03/2009.
Categorised under the topic of Higher education.

That this House notes with concern the view of universities that tuition fees should be sharply increased, with over half saying that the fee should be raised to £5,000 a year; believes this would be damaging to society as well as to individual students and would discriminate against students from less well off backgrounds; and calls on the Government to remove student fees entirely.

This motion has been signed by a total of 22 MPs.
