answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 05/11/2018 answer text <p>The programme of sales of pre-2012 income-contingent student loans is intended to raise £15bn in total by 2022/23, reducing Public Sector Net Debt. Each sale is subject to market conditions and a value for money test, which takes into account foregone repayments and assesses whether the government is better off holding or selling the assets when taking account of the time value of money, the effect of inflation, the riskiness of the asset and the opportunity cost of having money tied up in that asset. The government does not publish a year-by-year estimate of the sales programme, as the timing and size of sales remain flexible in order to maximise value for money. The National Audit Office reviewed the first sale and concluded that the government achieved value for money.</p> answering member constituency South West Norfolk answering member printed Elizabeth Truss question first answered 05/11/2018 15:26:02 answering member 4097 label Biography information for Elizabeth Truss
