Delivery Partnerships

Mr. Hayes
To ask the Secretary of State for Innovation, Universities and Skills how much his Department has spent on the (a) delivery partnership and (b) post-qualification admission process since 2005.

Bill Rammell
A sector-led Delivery Partnership was established in 2006 to implement reforms to the higher education applications process, resulting from the Government’s consultation in 2005 ‘Improving the Higher Education Applications Process’. The Department has contributed a total of £125,000 towards the costs of the Delivery Partnership to date, with further funding being provided by Universities UK.
