ABSTRACT

Table 3.1 attempts to draw together the threads of earlier discussion by setting out schematically the main ingredients of the system and the more important policy choices which can be made within it. The first part shows how universities will be financed (via students, via government and from other sources); the second shows the extent to which institutions of higher education will (or will not) be subject to regulation, in particular with respect to student numbers, conditions of employment and to the level of fees they may charge.
