According to a story by The Mail Online on January 24th, 2022, it talks about the fact that Universities could be forced to declare all overseas donations in a crackdown on foreign powers buying influence. An amendment proposed to the Higher Education (Freedom of Speech) Bill would force universities to disclose the names of any foreign donors giving more than £50,000. The Office for Students watchdog would publish the names on an annual register. The aim is to restore public trust and shine a light on potential conflicts of interest.
Many universities rely on money from Chinese students. Some have previously refused to name foreign donors because of contractual deals and commercial sensitivity. The amendment to the bill, which is currently going through Parliament, was tabled by Tory MP Jesse Norman. The motion is seconded by MP’s Sir Robert Buckland, Damian Green, and Robert Halfon, the chairman of the Commons Education Select Committee. Mr Norman said: ‘This is not a clause that in my mind is aimed at any specific individual or country or identifiable potential source of undue influence. ‘It is designed to improve the functioning and improve the reputation of British higher education, which after all is one of the jewels of the UK’s international reputation.’
Mr Halfon added: ‘Universities have been embroiled in controversial donations from Chinese firms, and from the Middle East over the past few years. ‘I am pleased to support this amendment which will ensure that proper scrutiny and transparency are applied and I hope that the Government will consider this amendment sympathetically.’ This really has been going on for many years and with the communist ideology running the British Labour party they have certainly been guilty of turning a blind eye in the past, thus making it almost a normality for Chinese and other Asian countries to treat the education system as a business that can be influenced and even bought.
