Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 18 October 2011
175 Deputy John McGuinness asked the Minister for Education and Skills if a grant will be approved by Kilkenny Vocational Education Committee in respect of a person (details supplied) towards the cost of a course. [30156/11]
View answerThe processing of student grants is carried out by local grant awarding authorities, the VECs and local authorities. In the circumstances, the student in question should contact his grant awarding authority to ascertain the position with his application.
The Deputy will appreciate that in the absence of all of the details that would be contained in a student grant application form, it would not be possible for me to say if a student would qualify for a grant.
