The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what information her Department holds on the number of people who have outstanding Plan 2 student loans in South Holland and the Deepings constituency.

Answered by Josh MacAlister

As of 21 June 2026, there were 4,900 (to the nearest hundred) Plan 2 student loan borrowers with a positive balance registered with the Student Loans Company (SLC) whose recorded postcodes fall within the South Holland and The Deepings constituency. This may include borrowers who were resident in the constituency at the point of application (including at parental addresses) and who have not subsequently updated their address with the SLC.
