Third Level Education
Dail Éireann — 2025-03-27
============================================================

Conor D. McGuinness (SF), Waterford

This is a very serious issue. My question relates to the situation of young adult carers in higher and further education.
We had a comprehensive debate on the more broad topic of young carers and young adult carers in this House last week. My question relates to the Department's efforts, schemes and steps to support young carers and young adult carers to access education, stay in it and benefit from it.
