I am sure that the hon. Member can appreciate that the details are currently being negotiated. We will update the House as soon as possible.
Andrew Bridgen (North West Leicestershire) (Con)
It should be clear to the House that our universities have an enviable reputation around the world. Indeed, research and education are two of our greatest exports. In the light of that, what steps is the Minister taking to ensure that that success not only continues but increases?
Michelle Donelan
This is essential. We have a target for 2030 of 600,000 international students coming to this country. We do value their importance as an international facilitator in our education system.
