One of the points Ms Cousins mentioned was that students from Ireland who are given conditional acceptances do not take up the places in Northern Ireland presumably because they get offers from the CAO. I had not realised that the universities in Northern Ireland then cannot proceed to fill those places. Why is that, if it they are just conditional acceptances?
