Students occupy Dept of Transport in Dublin
Ten students from several Dublin colleges have staged an overnight occupation of the offices of the Department of Transport in protest at plans to reintroduce third-level fees.
Yesterday, a number of students occupied the Department of Social, Community and Family Affairs and chained themselves to the railings of the Dail to highlight their opposition to cutbacks in the Back to Education allowance and Fianna Fail plans to re-introduce fees.
