One of the issues this committee has frequently looked at is the difficulty of PhD students and the limited resources available to them.
There was an announcement in the budget that the annual stipend available to PhD students would be €25,000. I presume the witnesses welcome that. What is their assessment of how that is going to help PhD students? Do they think it is insufficient?
