Answered Asked by Frances Curran SSP Lodged 5 May 2004

The question

To ask the Scottish Executive whether the contractual annulment of liability period under the student loan scheme has been altered from that originally agreed to by the signatories in any year since the scheme has been in operation and, if so, when such an alteration was made, what the reason was for the alteration, under what authority the alteration was made and which minister authorised the alteration in each case.

There have never been any changes to the criteria for cancellation of a borrower’s liability to repay a student loan under either the mortgage style or income contingent loan schemes. I would refer the member to S2W-8050 answered on 24 May 2004.
