I would refer the Deputy to my reply to Parliamentary Question No. 100 of 10 May 2017 which also concerned this matter.

As I stated on that occasion, I intend to jointly announce, with my colleague the Minister for Education and Skills, the details for an approved updated Third Level Graduate Programme in the coming weeks. I can, however, say that the revised programme will not be retrospective.
