Information on the repayment status of student loans is available in the Student Loans Company (SLC) publication\u2018Student Loans for Higher Education in England, Financial Year 2012-13'<\/em>.<\/p>

<\/p>

The Amount of Total Public Debt outstanding (including loans not yet due for repayment) at the start of Financial Year 2012-13 including interest was £40,271.5m<\/strong>, rising to £46,590.4m<\/strong> by the end of Financial Year 2012-13.<\/p>

<\/p>

The amount of debt written off or cancelled during the Financial Year 2012-13 was £27.0m<\/strong>. This figure is 0.07%<\/strong> of the Total Public Debt outstanding at the start of Financial Year 2012-13 and 0.06%<\/strong> of the Total Public Debt outstanding at the end of Financial Year 2012-13.<\/p>

<\/p>

Write offs occur for policy reasons; when borrowers die, become permanently disabled or when their loan reaches age thresholds. An estimate of \u2018bad debt' has not been provided in the answer as there is no standard definition for this.<\/p>

<\/p>

Statistics referring to the Financial Year 2013-14 will be published in June 2014.<\/p>

The Education (Student Loans) (Repayment) Regulations set out the terms and conditions of income contingent student loans. This is also set out in the booklet Student Loans \u2013 a Guide to Terms and Conditions<\/em>, the latest copy of which can be accessed at http://www.sfengland.slc.co.uk/media/666045/sfe_t_c_guide_1415_d.pdf .

The Mortgage Style loans offered for sale had a face value of around £890 million.<\/p>

The sale of the Mortgage Style Loan Book was value for money as the purchase price exceeded the value of retention to Government.<\/p>

The real value of the book is below the face value of the loans because of the subsidised nature of the loans and their age. These loans attract low interest rates and have an earnings threshold for repayment. The age-related write off combined with the earnings threshold means some borrowers never repay.<\/p>

<\/p>

The sale of Mortgage style Loans also allowed the Student Loans Company to focus on its core business of supplying income contingent loans (ICR) to current students and collecting repayments from those loans.<\/p>
