Michael D. Higgins
Ceist:390 Deputy Michael D. Higgins asked the Minister for Education and Science if she will take such steps as to ensure that where a mature student in receipt of a higher education grant fails to complete a course due to medical reasons, such student will be able to resume their education and access to a grant without penalty; and if she will issue an instruction to those local authorities and vocational education committees who are interpreting Section 3.3 of the guidelines as requiring a five year wait by the student in such circumstances, that they should cease doing so.
