Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what assessment he has made of the potential merits of offering a retrospective financial award to healthcare students who studied between 2017 and 2020 who did not receive a bursary during their time of study.
No recent assessment has been made and we have no plans to provide a retrospective financial award to healthcare students who did not receive the current grant offer during their studies.
