Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 23 July 2020
159. Deputy Brendan Griffin asked the Minister for Education and Skills the way in which she plans to address a matter regarding a student (details supplied); and if she will make a statement on the matter. [17774/20]
View answerI am very conscious of the impact arising from the issue of the 2020 Leaving Certificate results on 7th September on all students, in particular for those students who chose to pursue their undergraduate studies in other EU Member States, including the Netherlands.
In that regard, and further to previous correspondence from my predecessor on this matter, I have written to Minster Van Engelshoven seeking her support for special consideration by higher education institutions in the Netherlands for Irish students this year, and I hope to hear from her soon.
