This is the text of a speech delivered by Nick Hillman, HEPI’s Director, to the 16th Annual Student Housing Investment Conference. Good morning. It is wonderful to be here, even if the outlook for our sector does not feel quite as rosy as when I have appeared here in the past – and, given the new migration white paper from the Home Office, not as rosy as it felt just a few hours ago.

This blog has been kindly written for HEPI by Andrew Norton, Professor of Higher Education Policy at Monash Business School, Monash University. For an Australian reader the UK immigration white paper’s proposal for a levy on international student fee revenue sounds familiar. In mid-2023 just such a levy was suggested for Australia by the interim report of a major higher education policy review. Like its UK version, the idea was to reinvest levy revenue in education.

That would have pleased the speaker of the House of Commons, who (rightly) hates it when the papers hear about government policy first.

In response, to the Government’s white paper on migration, Nick Hillman, Director of the Higher Education Policy Institute (HEPI), said:“The idea of a levy on international students will be deeply controversial, just as it has been in Australia where a debate has been raging on this idea for months. A levy will be seen by many as a tax on a very successful UK export sector.

One of the most overused terms in public policy is silos. Another is joined-up government. We are meant to hate the former and love the latter. It is taken as read that we should endlessly support the breaking down of boundaries between different policy areas. Supposedly, this will lead to better administration. But any consensus should be questioned as a matter of principle to check it makes sense.
