Oral Answers to Questions

Debate between Tobias Ellwood and Luke Hall

Monday 29th April 2024 Commons Chamber

[Luke Hall]

I thank the hon. Gentleman for his words welcoming me to my post. The point I would make is that the 2023 cycle shows numbers rebalancing and returning to a trend of normal growth in applications following the pandemic. He should also look at the big impact nursing apprenticeships and nursing degree apprenticeships are having on the system. I am always happy to meet him to discuss these issues, but we do think it is a fairer and more affordable system for both students and taxpayers, and will result in more people being able to access a world-class higher education in our country.

[Mr Tobias Ellwood (Bournemouth East) (Con)]
