Written answers

Officials in my Department have confirmed with Student Universal Support Ireland that in the case of the student referred to by the Deputy, her student grant application was appealed to the appeals officer in SUSI and also to the Independent Appeals Board. SUSI was advised by the Appeals Board to review the application of the applicant referred to by the Deputy as the original decision was overturned by the Appeals Board. The student's application was reassessed and on the 6th June 2013, a revised award letter issued to the student.
