London Metropolitan University And The UK Border Agency

EDM number 437 in 2012-13, proposed by Jeremy Corbyn on 03/09/2012.
Categorised under the topics of Higher education, Immigration and Students.

That this House calls on the Home Secretary to reverse the decision of the UK Border Agency to suspend London Metropolitan University's right to recruit overseas students; believes it is grossly unfair on those existing overseas students who attend university and will now be forced to move elsewhere or face removal from the UK; further calls on the Home Office and the universityto work together to resolve any administrative issues and not threaten the future of the university; and also believes that this decision has very damaging and serious consequences for every university and will further deter overseas students from choosing to study in the UK.

This motion has been signed by a total of 45 MPs.
