PARLIAMENTARY EARLY DAY MOTION
INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS AND NET MIGRATION TARGETS (27 January 2015)
Motion Details
That this House recognises the enormous cultural, academic and economic contribution that international students studying at UK universities make to the country; is concerned at the dramatic drop in students enrolling to study at UK universities from some of the UK's major international trading partners; believes that the public does not generally view international students to be migrants and does not wish to see their number reduced; and urges the Government to exclude university students from efforts to bear down on immigration including by removing university students from any target to reduce net migration.
