Public Consultation on Student Grants

The Minister for Education, Sport and Culture would like to hear your views and comments on this paper regarding future arrangement for student grants.

The paper sets out the background against which the Council of Ministers and Minister for Education, Sport and Culture in particular, will have to make decisions on best use of limited funds. It also sets out the following options:

• increasing States expenditure on student grants;
• readjusting the contribution made by the States and the individual;
• taking measures to limit or reduce student numbers; and
• the introduction of a new source of funding to contribute towards the total cost.

The Minister would be grateful for your responses on its contents and/or the questions (highlighted in italics) in each section by 25 August 2006.
