University chiefs aren't custodians of a business, but of our educational future
It is deeply concerning that the Committee of Scottish Chairs (chairs of university governing bodies) believe there is no need to regulate the rest of UK (rUK) tuition fees in Scottish universities ("University chiefs demand end to tuition fees cap", The Herald, February 19).

Custom byline text:
While in their evidence to the Education and Culture Committee, Scottish chairs stated the voluntary fee level is being adhered to, it is worth recalling that when this voluntary agreement was made, the Minister indicated he would legislate on the fee level, so if any university had set a higher fee it would have been forced to reduce it once the Bill became law.
