The person concerned is completing a Masters of Law course at NUI and applied for a Back to Education Allowance.

The person concerned was advised that an application could be made to participate on this course under the Part Time Education Option and he was requested to supply a letter from the college confirming that he is participating on the course on a part-time basis. This documentation is still outstanding and the jobseeker’s allowance claim for the person concerned is currently suspended pending contact from the person concerned.
