Third Level Education

============================================================

Ruairí Ó Murchú (SF), Louth

Could I ask the Minister of State about the changes to the SUSI thresholds, as per budget 2025? Could he provide an estimate for the additional number of students who will now qualify for the grant? That is the information we seek. We are all well aware that students are struggling with the cost of living and the cost of accommodation, as per the previous question. If more people can avail of SUSI grants, it will facilitate them to attend the college they want.
