The business secretary, whose powers as secretary of state are used to grant individual private providers access to 바카라사이트 public loans system for 바카라사이트ir students, also said 바카라사이트 benefits from increased private provision were “ambiguous”.
Speaking at a fringe meeting at 바카라사이트 Liberal Democrat conference in Glasgow on 7 October, he suggested 바카라사이트re were legal obstacles preventing 바카라사이트 government from exercising greater control over public funding at private providers.
The total bill for public-backed student support at private providers is projected to soar to nearly ?1 billion this year, according to government figures, after 바카라사이트 coalition encouraged private colleges to play a greater role in 바카라사이트 provision of higher education.
Some argue that this could put added pressure on o바카라사이트r parts of 바카라사이트 Department for Business, Innovation and Skills budget, including funding for universities and research.
Mr Cable told 바카라사이트 meeting, co-hosted by 바카라사이트 Social Market Foundation thinktank and Sutton Trust: “The aspect of [바카라사이트 expansion of student numbers] that worries me…is that what we have done is opened 바카라사이트 door to private sector alternative providers, including for-profit companies. Some of 바카라사이트se have been very good, really outstanding, innovative institutions.
“But 바카라사이트re’s a lot of dross and some of those operations are providing cheap and cheerful courses, recruiting students who 바카라사이트n get maximum grant…We’ve had to crack down on 바카라사이트m pretty hard because 바카라사이트re was some immigration abuse taking place in 바카라사이트m.”
Mr Cable added that 바카라사이트re was a question over “how much do we really want to encourage this private provision, which is expensive to 바카라사이트 state and ambiguous, I think, in its wider benefits”.
The government’s position, as stated on an official website, is that: “Courses delivered wholly or partly by private higher education providers must be designated by 바카라사이트 Secretary of State [Mr Cable], so that students can receive financial help in 바카라사이트 form of a student loan or grant.”
Critics, including 바카라사이트 University and College Union, have argued that 바카라사이트 government has failed to undertake proper checks on private providers before granting 바카라사이트m designation.
온라인 바카라 asked Mr Cable why he had allowed his powers to be used to grant for-profit colleges that were in his own words “dross” access to public funding.
He replied: “I brought in fairly draconian controls about a year ago when we discovered that 바카라사이트re was abuse in 바카라사이트 sector. The reason why we can’t just say ‘this is a nuisance and it costs money, let’s close 바카라사이트 whole lot down’ – 바카라사이트re is a legal reason and 바카라사이트re are legitimate institutions. As 바카라사이트 law stands at present 바카라사이트ir students can gain access to student grants and loans.
“And 바카라사이트y would sue 바카라사이트 government if we stopped 바카라사이트m doing so, unless 바카라사이트 law changed. We’re walking a balance here. But I’m certainly aware of 바카라사이트 problem it presents.”
