Officials in my Department have confirmed with Student Universal Support Ireland (SUSI) that the grant application of the student referred to by the Deputy was awarded on the 4th October, 2013. Students get paid as soon as possible after they submit their bank accounts details and their institutions confirm their attendance. SUSI is awaiting confirmation from the applicant's college before payment can commence. I understand that SUSI has contacted the applicant's college on six occasions since October.
