Agricultural scholarships offered by the county committees of agriculture are already available to boys and girls whose parents are resident in urban areas including Dublin city, if the parents are holders of land in the rural areas of the county. Applications for such scholarships received from persons whose parents are resident in the urban areas but are not holders of land in the rural areas are considered on their merits, due regard being had to the number of scholarships available and the number of applicants qualifying for such scholarships from the rural areas.
