The Chartered Institute of Housing is to half student membership fees next year but denied the move was a bid to reverse falling membership.

As of 2003, annual student membership fees will be slashed from 拢58 to 拢25 with entrance fees abolished. But fees for senior members are set to increase.

Members will be asked to vote on the restructuring proposals at the institute鈥檚 annual conference in Harrogate next week.Director of professional development Martin Winn said there was no drop in membership and student fees had been halved because they were 鈥渁 problem for people starting out鈥�.
