74. To ask the Minister for Education and Skills the reason the awarding of a 100% maintenance grant in respect of a person (details supplied) in County Cork has not been backdated for the full academic year; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [28565/14]

Officials in my Department have confirmed with Student Universal Support Ireland (SUSI) that the student referred to by the Deputy has, on appeal, been awarded a grant at the 100% standard non-adjacent rate of maintenance and fees.
I understand from SUSI that the remaining balance will be paid shortly.
