He will complete his primary degree, of which I assume he has two years done. I hope he will have success in his examinations at the end of the academic year. He will be supported, in addition to having the book allowance, when he comes to the third or fourth parts of his primary degree, depending on whether it is a three or four year degree programme. Many who have benefited from the scheme never went beyond a primary degree. They started with the leaving certificate and would have, in the main, been supported for four or five years under the scheme.
