The question
To ask the Scottish Executive, further to the Cabinet Secretary for Education and Lifelong Learning’s announcement on 9 March 2008 of additional investment in colleges and universities, what the breakdown will be of the £10 million being allocated to colleges to allow for further strategic investment in key priority areas.
The answer
The allocation of this additional investment of £20 million, £10 million for universities and £10 million for colleges, is a matter for the Scottish Funding Council.
The council expects to make a full announcement on the breakdown of the £10 million allocation to colleges in April 2008. However, I understand that allocations will be made to all colleges to support young people who need more choices and more chances, to support improved articulation and to support innovative approaches to learning delivery.
