Decisions on eligibility for new student grant applications from the 2012/13 academic year are a matter for the new centralised grant awarding authority, SUSI (Student Universal Support Ireland).

Officials in my Department have confirmed with SUSI that on a letter issued to the student referred to by the Deputy requesting outstanding documentation. When the documentation is returned to SUSI the student will be notified directly of the outcome.
