Question:228 Ms O'Sullivan asked the Minister for Education and Science the position regarding his Department's interpretation under the higher education grants scheme of re-entering, where a mature student enters the third level system to study at postgraduate level as a mature candidate following a break of at least one year and having previously attended an undergraduate course approved for the purpose of the scheme; and if the one year concerned was spent by the student attending a post leaving certificate course, if they qualify as a re-entering mature applicant for a grant under this clause.
