Vote 26 - Department of Education and Skills (28 Feb 2013) Gerald Nash: There is a high rate of success for appeals. If there was that rate of success in social welfare appeals - that had been the case with some disability payments - a flag would go up and the Department would make some intervention to improve the system. What has the Department learned from the high rate of appeals?

Vote 26 - Department of Education and Skills (28 Feb 2013) Gerald Nash: On the systems, I took the opportunity this morning to look at the SUSI website which probably could be described more appropriately as a webpage. Essentially, it is a snapshot. I tried to get onto the SUSI icon and it did not take me to the City of Dublin Vocational Education Committee, CDVEC. Clearly, I was aware that CDVEC is the appropriate authority to contact on the applications...
