The student referred to by the Deputy was awarded 50% student contribution by the awarding authority. A party to an appeal had declared employment would cease on 30 June 2022, so an additional letter was sent to the applicant on the same day as the award letter requesting Confirmation of Cessation of Employment from Revenue in order to review under a change of circumstances.

As of 25th October 2022, this document has not been received by SUSI and there has been no Internal Review request or Notice of Appeal received.
