Written Answers
Coroners: Clonoe
Asked by: Baroness Hoey (Non-affiliated - Life peer)
Wednesday 26th March 2025

Question to the Attorney General:

To ask His Majesty's Government whether a decision to bring a judicial review of the coroner's recent findings of no justification at the inquest into the deaths by military gunfire of four armed IRA men at Clonoe, County Tyrone in 1992 has been taken by the Attorney General; and, if not, why not.

Answered by Lord Hermer - Attorney General

Paragraph 21.27 of Erskine May states:

“By long-standing convention, observed by successive Governments, the fact of, and substance of advice from, the law officers of the Crown is not disclosed outside government. This convention is referred to in paragraph [5.14] of the Ministerial Code [updated on 6 November 2024]. The purpose of this convention is to enable the Government to obtain frank and full legal advice in confidence.”

This is known as the Law Officers’ Convention and it applies to your question.

Higher Education
Asked by: Baroness Hoey (Non-affiliated - Life peer)
Wednesday 9th April 2025

Question to the Department for Education:

To ask His Majesty's Government how many colleges and institutions are registered as higher education providers with the Office for Students.

Answered by Baroness Smith of Malvern - Minister of State (Minister for Women and Equalities)

There are currently 426 higher education providers registered with the Office for Students (OfS) as of 28 March 2025. The full OfS register of providers is publicly available and can be found on the OfS website.

Nurses: Higher Education
Asked by: Baroness Hoey (Non-affiliated - Life peer)
Tuesday 8th April 2025

Question to the Department for Education:

To ask His Majesty's Government whether they plan to abolish university tuition fees for nursing.

Answered by Baroness Smith of Malvern - Minister of State (Minister for Women and Equalities)

Currently, there are no plans to abolish tuition fees for nursing courses for the 2025/26 academic year. Students undertaking nursing, midwifery and allied health profession courses qualify for non-repayable grant support through the NHS Learning Support Fund. In addition, for the 2025/26 academic year, we will be increasing loans for living costs by 3.1%. This ensures that the most support is targeted at students from the lowest income families, while keeping the student finance system financially sustainable.

The higher education (HE) sector needs a secure financial footing to face the challenges of the next decade, and to ensure that all students can be confident they will receive the world-class HE experience they deserve. This is why, after seven years of frozen fee caps under the previous government, the department has taken the difficult decision to increase maximum tuition fee limits for the 2025/26 academic year by 3.1%, in line with the forecast rate of inflation.

In recognition of the increased investment students are being asked to make, the department expects the sector to deliver the very best outcomes, both for those students and for the country. We will publish our plan for HE reform in the summer, and work with the sector and the Office for Students to deliver the change that the country needs.

Tuesday 8th April 2025

Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the current protests and demonstrations in Zimbabwe and the detention of opposition party members by the Zanu PF government.

Answered by Lord Collins of Highbury - Lord in Waiting (HM Household) (Whip)

The UK is monitoring political developments in Zimbabwe, including demonstrations on 31 March when a number of protestors were arrested. The UK supports the rights to peaceful protest and due process guaranteed by Zimbabwe's constitution.

Terrorism: Northern Ireland
Asked by: Baroness Hoey (Non-affiliated - Life peer)
Thursday 10th April 2025

Question to the Northern Ireland Office:

To ask His Majesty's Government whether they will invite the Police Service of Northern Ireland to investigate the conduct of ministers following the declassification of the minutes of a meeting with Sinn Fein at Hillsborough Castle on 9 October 2001 which record that ministers had "turned a blind eye" to serious crimes of the IRA, as reported in the Belfast Telegraph on 28 March.

Answered by Baroness Anderson of Stoke-on-Trent - Baroness in Waiting (HM Household) (Whip)

The Government does not comment on National Archives releases or releases relating to previous Governments.
