To ask the Minister for the Economy to detail any available data on the impact of Brexit on (i) student; and (ii) staff mobility in further education colleges, including any changes in participation in (a) exchange programs; (b) cross-border collaboration; and (c) international recruitment.

My officials are advised by Further Education Colleges that while data is held in respect of student and staff mobility, analysis has not been conducted on the impact of EU Exit on such activity, advising that a range of factors will have an effect on student and staff mobility. Other than reporting that the Colleges have received less funding for the activities identified under the Turing Scheme post EU Exit in comparison to its predecessor Erasmus+ pre EU Exit, I am unable to provide further information.
