Vol. 455 No. 8

Written Answers. - Third Level Fees.

Éamon Ó Cuív

Ceist:

197 Éamon Ó Cuív asked the Minister for Education if she intends to abolish third level university fees for students attending night courses in universities when fees for day courses are abolished. [12892/95]

My decision on the abolition of fees relates to fees paid by fulltime undergraduate students attending publicly funded and certain other designated third level institutions.

It is necessary to adopt this approach because the resources available to fund this measure are limited.

I would hope that, as resources become available, it will be possible to extend this free fees initiative to cover students attending night courses.
