Fresh warnings of UK

immigration lOOphOle

LONDON

Figures showed the number of students entering Britain from countries outside the European Union increased by more than 75,000 in 12 months, despite unprecedented demand for college and university places at home.

The influx was exacerbated by a further 31,000 dependants accompanying foreign students.

It followed the introduction of Labour’s points-based immigration system which was supposed to make it harder for unskilled immigrants to come to Britain.

But the system made it no harder for immigrants to enter the country on student visas, according to campaign groups.

The British government said on Sunday that the student visa system had been open to “significant abuse”. Immigration Minister Damian Green said there would be a thorough review of the rules and new measures to “tighten the system further”.

Many students enter Britain to take legitimate degrees but tens of thousands of other foreigners have been admitted to 600 “lower tier” colleges, at which it is easier to gain a place but which are still accredited to hand out degrees.

Last year, it emerged that some of these colleges offered qualifications in subjects such as circus skills, acupuncture and ancient medicine. Many of their students are given the RiGHT to wOrk in Britain after graduating.

About 4,000 illegal immigrants are also thought to have used bogus colleges to slip into the country.

Mr Andrew Green, chairman of the group Migrationwatch, said: “There is growing evidence the points-based system has provided a back door for bogus students.”— The number of foreigners entering the United Kingdom on student visas rose by a third to more than 300,000 last year, prompting renewed warnings of a loophole in immigration law.
