Lord Teverson – 2016 Parliamentary Question to the Home Office

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Lord Teverson on 2016-10-18.

To ask Her Majesty’s Government, in the light of Home Office research indicating that only one per cent of foreign students fail to leave the country once they have completed their course, whether they intend to encourage more such students to study in the UK.

Baroness Williams of Trafford

There remains no limit on the number of genuine international students who can come to study in the UK and visa applications from international students to study at British universities are up by 14% since 2010.
