Postgraduate Doctoral Loans

The LITRG has responded to a Department for Education consultation on the introduction of Postgraduate Doctoral Loans.

LITRG recommends that employers must be provided with guidance regarding the repayment of these new loans through the Pay As You Earn (PAYE) tax system. Clear guidance should also be provided to postgraduate students both when taking out their loan and when completing their studies so that they understand how and when their loan will be repaid.

The consultation document can be found on the Department for Education website.
