View answerThe decision on eligibility for new student grant applications from the 2012/13 academic year is a matter for the new centralised grant awarding authority, SUSI (Student Universal Support Ireland).
Officials in my Department have confirmed with SUSI that documentation requested from the student referred to by the Deputy has been received and that his application is currently awaiting review. The student will be notified directly of the outcome.
