Ceist:254 Mr. Howlin asked the Minister for Education and Science if he will reconsider the application for a 2002 higher education grant from a person (details supplied) in County Wexford, in view of the fact that the calibre of training provided to them at the Royal College of Music in London is not available here; if an alternative source of funding support can be made available by his Department to this person; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
