Paul Murphy
Question:520. Deputy Paul Murphy asked the Minister for Further and Higher Education, Research, Innovation and Science if his attention has been drawn to the inequality which exists in the funding of PhDs with a large number having to self- fund while many others must find funding bodies getting approval on detailed proposals; if he will instruct his Department to increase the stipend received by PhD students across the country given the increased cost of living which has outpaced a PhD stipend which has not changed since approximately 2003 (details supplied); and if he will make a statement on the matter.
