This briefing has been produced for the Enterprise and Culture Committee to assist in its inquiry into the ‘Impact of England’s University fees on Scottish Higher Education’. It should be read in conjunction with Briefing 03/68, ‘Methods of funding higher education’ (indexed at TD/TNC 76.175), which looks at global trends and funding figures for higher education in various systems throughout the world. After briefly outlining the extent of higher education in Scotland, this paper will summarise the proposals contained within the English White Paper, ‘The future of higher education’ (Department for Education and Skills), before looking at the levels of funding for higher education institutions in Scotland and England. The paper will also look at some of the potential key issues that may be of interest to the Committee inquiry.
