Minutes:
The
Committee considered correspondence from the Minister for Education together
with further comments from the petitioner and agreed to close the petition, in
light of the unambiguous response received from the Minister for Education, and
the fact that there appears to be little realistic prospect of change to this
aspect of student funding policy.

Minutes:
The
Committee considered the petition for the first time and agreed to write to the
Cabinet Secretary for Education to ask:
·
if
her officials could meet with the petitioner to discuss the issue raised in the
petition in more detail; and
·
what
consideration she has given to making funding available to Welsh students
wishing to study in the top 100 universities globally.
The
Committee also queried whether the same arrangements apply to English- and
Scottish-based students.
