PQ 409
409. Deputy Roderic O'Gorman asked the Minister for Transport his views on whether the cut-off point of 16 hours of lectures/class time per week for eligibility of the student Leap card is appropriate, given that additional reading hours often amount to up to 40 hours per week in many courses, and given that the purpose of the student Leap card is to reduce financial burdens on all students; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
