Tories promise university scholarships for children of troops killed in service
Following a visit to Afghanistan, George Osborne, the shadow chancellor, and Liam Fox, the shadow defence secretary, announced that anyone whose parents had died in service since 1990 would be eligible for the scheme.
That means the children of those killed in conflicts including Iraq, Afghanistan, Kosovo, Bosnia and Northern Ireland would be covered.
The scholarships worth more than £8,000 a year would be available for university degrees and vocational college courses.
Students would receive a maintenance grant of £5,000 on top of tuition fees which will stand at £3,210 in the next academic year.
