Transcript:

To begin with, how underfunded is UK higher education? The table shows the proportion of gross domestic products spent on institutions by the main OECD countries for the latest year for which we have statistics 2001. It shows that UK spending, public and private, on higher education institutions was at 1:00, 0.08%, well below the OECD mean of 1.34% of GDP. The table clearly shows that the UK is in the bottom 5 countries of the 20:00 in the table in terms of public expenditure on tertiary education, it's spending being proportionately equal to that of Italy and Mexico. At the other end of the table, we see that Denmark and Finland allocate most public money to tertiary education, spending twice as higher proportion of GDP on it as does the UK.
