I do not think that they will weaken the already flawed PSW category.

If you analyse it critically, you will understand that the PSW is easy to get once you have a degree, that is why they rely much on maintenance fund which account for over 70% of refusals.
In the first instance, a student that paid all way through the hard times of education while working only 20hrs was able to maintain and accommodate himself, BUT HE CANNOT BE ABLE TO ACCOMMODATE HIMSELF WHEN THE 20HRS RESTRICTION IS REMOVED IN PSW.

How correct do you think this is?
Of course, THIS IS NOT TRUE, any student that is here for more than 3 years as a student, paid his/her tuition can be able to maintain him/herself without the almighty recourse during the PSW.
Check it out.
--- Working full time
---- Doing any type of business

But still they used maintenance fund drama as a strategy which turns PSW to be a scratch and win lottery game even after having your degree.
It suppose to be automatic once you have your degree, maintenance fund is irrelevant.

Then coming back to your question. the PGDip and PGCert where all added at start, but the flaws and shortcuts where revealed, then they removed these level of qualifications.

The flaws/shortcuts includes:

1. You can do PGDip/PGCert as a matured Student without prior qualification.
2. PGDip/PGCert can be completed easily, especially, the PGCert can be as short as 1 module in some cases, and this module can be by assignment, meaning anybody can do it for you, or you can use some online solutions like brainmass.com post your question get it answered.

Hey!, if you doubt me, search one of your University questions at brainmass, you might be surprised to get it already answered there, and then you can buy it for just $2.

Completing an Undergraduate Project, Master dissertation or Doctoral Thesis really is complex and moreover some involve face to face examination.

Prediction, I am thinking they might even remove all top-up qualifications that fails to prove prior qualifications, - that topups for matured students, i.e. jumping on year 3 from no where.

They are tightening it, not otherwise, it will get stronger rules than present, watch out.

At Launch, all type method of study where included, meaning even if you studied online/distance learning from your home country, you are qualified, because Degree is Degree irrespective of method of study.

But now you must have student's visa and studied it fulltime which indirectly limits this to students studying fultime in UK.

Some people get disappointed when they removed PGDip/PGCert, If they try to add it now, then, they will need to recruit more case workers, as applications will be delivered by truck.

--and all listed bodies will start again in the boom of their Postgraduate Diploma awards - in fact this was the first reason why PGDip/PGCert was closed and limited to Universities, and later, they realize that you can do it in 3 months, then, they give it a final close.

I doubt your rumour, it is a mere dream as you can see.

1. If HO allows then we will know lol.

The 20 hour provision was never allowed to be used to fund studies.

Yes, I know that as a student, you do not have to rely on work to pay your tuition. But, What I mean is that, How can a student that supported himself without work/with only 20hrs work as a student CANNOT be able to support himself when he is given the permission to work fulltime as PSWer?

I am simply arguing that any person who can stand his studies, maintenance, 20hrs and recourse rule, can also stand it in the PSW that gives him more chance. They do not need to ask maintenance, is absolutely irrelevant. if they want to stake a lottery like the USA DV, then, let them come clear.
