Written answers

I propose to take Questions Nos. 261 and 264 together.

The exact details sought by the Deputy are not available in my Department. However, based on details available to them, the Higher Education Authority has provided estimates on the amounts received by institutions in relation to the Student Contribution (formerly the Student Services Charge) and the estimated number of students who paid the Contribution/Charge, as set out in the following tables. Details on the rate of Student Contribution/Student Services Charge since 2006/07 are also provided.
