Select Committee on Innovation, Universities and Skills Written Evidence

Memorandum 119

Submission from John Bowis MEP

  I just wanted to give my support to the submission, which I have seen, from Birkbeck College. Birkbeck does excellent work in the area of re-skilling and this could be put at risk by the current proposals for ELQs. At the very least the ameliorative requests from the College should be supported but ideally the policy will be withdrawn for more consideration and consultation.
