Question to the Department for Education:

To ask His Majesty's Government, further to the Written Statement by Baroness Smith of Malvern on 20 January (HLWS369), what official role will the Welsh Government have within His Majesty's Government’s review of the higher education sector.

While higher education is a devolved matter, the Welsh government is engaging with the UK government regarding plans for higher education (HE) reform in England. The department will publish the plans for HE reform in England in the summer.
