Emmet Stagg
Question:63 Mr. Stagg asked the Minister for Education and Science his views on whether it is unacceptable that students under the age of 23 on 1 January 1999 in their year of entry into college are assessed on their own plus their parents or guardians' income regardless of their circumstances; for example a student may be 22, married with a child and still assessed on the basis of his own plus his parents' or guardians' income; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
