Michelle Mulherin
Ceist:146. Deputy Michelle Mulherin asked the Minister for Education and Skills if she will amend the student grant scheme in order that mortgage repayments on the family home are considered in the means test for grant eligibility and that the income limits be increased according to the number of other dependent siblings, so as to recognise the hard-pressed financial reality of heavily-indebted and larger families that are ineligible for grant aid due to income being in excess of eligibility thresholds, but who cannot afford to send a dependent child to college without grant assistance; and if she will make a statement on the matter.
