Vol. 410 No. 1
66 Mrs. Taylor-Quinn asked the Minister for Education if a grant will be paid to a person (details supplied) in County Clare through the European Social Fund for 1989-90, and through her Department and Clare County Council for the year 1991-92.
In accordance with the terms of clause 5 (d) of the 1988 higher education grants scheme, the relevant scheme in this case, a grant is not payable in respect of a second period of college attendance at any particular level.
It is understood that the person in question was in receipt of a higher education grant in respect of a two year certificate course in journalism at the College of Commerce, Rathmines, during 1988-89 and 1989-90. Accordingly, a higher education grant could not be made payable in this case until the third year of a new course.
The person referred to was assessed for training grant purposes under the European Social Fund scheme by the authorities at Rathmines College of Commerce and was found to be ineligible.
