146. To ask the Minister for Education and Skills the reason persons are still awaiting Student Universal Support Ireland grants; the reason SUSI has failed to deal with a case (details supplied); the date this application was received; the date this application went to appeal; the date the appeal decision was made; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

An appeal from the student in question was considered by the independent Student Grants Appeals Board on the 16th April, 2013. I understand that Student Universal Support Ireland (SUSI) was requested to review this application by the Board.

Officials in my Department have confirmed with Student Universal Support Ireland that the application is currently being reassessed and the student will be notified directly by SUSI of the outcome in the coming days.
