Social Welfare Benefits
Dail Éireann — 2024-04-25
============================================================

Ciarán Cannon (FG), Galway East

Ireland has an exceptional track record in educational attainment, both in the length of time our young people stay in education and the academic standards they achieve during that time. In recent months, the Minister has proposed to extend child benefit to 18-year-olds in full-time education. When does she think those changes will come into effect? How many students does she think will benefit?
