The EA has developed a Prioritisation and Early Warning System (PEWS) for chemicals of emerging concern to ensure consideration of the potential risks of emerging chemicals including to surface waters (both freshwater and saline waters), groundwater and soils. The system allows the EA to sift and to screen any chemical substance nominated using, where available, hazard data and environmental monitoring data to prioritise whether a substance may be a possible chemical of concern in England.<\/p>
<\/p>
The EA has considered some mineral UV-filters as part of PEWS: zinc oxide in its nanoform; and titanium dioxide in its nanoform. However, both substances have a much broader range of uses beyond cosmetics, so it is not possible to isolate the impact of release from cosmetic use alone. Both substances flagged as low risk in PEWS, but the EA stresses it has low certainty over this outcome, due to a lack of available data.<\/p>

The Government values the contribution that international students make to the UK\u2019s economy, and to making our education system one of the best in the world. According to the OECD\u2019s Education at a Glance we remain, by some way, the second most popular destination in the world for international higher education students.<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
The UK India Education and Research Initiative (UKIERI) aims to enhance mutually beneficial educational links between India and the UK. Both Governments have agreed to continue this highly successful programme into a third phase to begin in 2016.<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
BIS has established a regular tripartite dialogue with colleagues from the Home Office and the Indian High Commission.<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
<\/p>
The British High Commission in Delhi (BHC) and the British Council in Delhi are also working hard to promote the message that the UK is open to all genuine students and that there is no limit on the number of international students who can study at our world leading universities. For example, through the GREAT campaign we have a strong digital and social media campaign with a focus on the employability of Indian students who have graduated from UK HEIs and on countering common visa myths.<\/p>
