These enclaves often provoke a lot of problems, especially in summer time, when students leave their apartments without care ignoring the peoples requests. The government and ministers are trying to find some viable solution to this situation. In particular, their measures are directed against large invasion of students to the territory beyond campus.
What measures are provided to stop students flow to the towns?
1.The adoption of Use Classes Order 1987
This document allows to control the concentrations of students in certain types of property. It also permits Houses in Multiple Occupation to be subjected to be severe control.
2.With the help of local control system and the National Union of Students, these territories are monitored. So, the government is informed when students leave their accommodations and arrive there. The point is that the Union does not see any problems with students enclaves in case it is properly monitored and organized. Besides, on-campus dorms are often crammed and there are no free rooms for newcomers.
3.In response to the National Union of Student, the government has expressed it favorable attitude to students and existed situation. However, it will not stay away until student life prevents normal living of local residents.
