Amharc ar fhreagra340. Deputy Dara Calleary asked the Minister for Education and Skills when a higher education grant application in respect of a student (details supplied) in County Mayo will be processed; the reason this application has been delayed; and if he will expedite the application in view of the delay experienced to date. [1756/13]
Amharc ar fhreagraI propose to take Questions Nos. 231 and 340 together.
Officials in my Department have confirmed with SUSI, the new centralised grant awarding authority, that in the case of the student referred to by the Deputy her application is currently being assessed and a letter will issue shortly directly to the student outlining the position when a decision is made.
