Mr. Brotherton
asked the Secretary of State for Education and Science (1) whether public funds will be made available to rescue the National Union of Students' travel service from bankruptcy;(2) what plans he has to save the jobs of those people made redundant by the collapse of the travel service of the National Union of Students.
