   The debate on higher education funding

"Let us all be clear: there is no cut to overall higher education funding. Spending on higher education will remain at the record levels established by this Labour Government. By 2010-11 there will have been an increase in Government spending of over 30 per cent. in real terms since 1997-98, and there will be 2 per cent. real growth per annum over the next three years." 

John Denham has been in the news lately as his department plans to redistribute higher education funding to encourage more people to take a first degree.  This was recently debated in Parliament; you can read the debate here.
