The Dept for Business, Innovation and Skills published its Universities White Paper on 28th June 2011. The consultation period is now open. BIS explains:-
“We are also running a series of more detailed consultations on early repayment, and the new regulatory framework, as reform in these areas could lead to changes to primary legislation. HEFCE are consulting on the allocation of teaching grant and implementing new student number controls for 2012/13. This consultation will soon be available on their website.”
The White Paper consultation closes on 20th September 2011, as does the Early Repayment consultation. The HEFCE consultation ends on 22nd September and the Regulatory Framework consultation closes at some point in October.
