Question 1676: To ask the Minister for Education and Science his views on detailed correspondence sent to his Department on 11 August, 2008 (details supplied), dealing with the issue of the anomalies between the three third-level scholarship schemes operated by his Department; if in the first instance he will agree to meet with the group from An Ghaeltacht, who have clearly outlined the nature of the anomalies concerned; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

It is proposed to carry out a review of the three existing third-level Irish scholarship schemes in the course of the current academic year to determine their continuing effectiveness in meeting their objectives. A range of issues will be considered in the context of this review, including those raised in the correspondence referred to by the Deputy. In the circumstances, a meeting at this time would not be warranted as I have no additional information to add to that which has already been supplied.
