Written Answers. - Higher Education Grants.
I understand that the course to which the Deputy refers is provided by the College of Horticulture at An Grianan and is organised by Teagasc. While this course does not come within the scope of the student support schemes operated by my Department, I understand that students attending the College of Horticulture at An Grianan are eligible to apply for grant aid from Teagasc.
