The student referred to by the Deputy was awarded a postgraduate fee contribution of €2,000 for the academic year 2013/14. He appealed this decision to the independent Student Grant Appeals Board and his appeal was heard by the Board on 1st April 2014. The original decision was upheld and a letter issued to the student shortly thereafter advising him of the outcome of the appeal.
