'Blatant electioneering' - Govt asked to explain how they will fund third-level education

The Government has been called upon to explain how it intends to fund third-level education now that it has ruled out increasing fees or introducing student loans.
There has been a broad welcome to the news that the Government has ruled out increasing the burden on students but Opposition TDs have demanded clarity as to how an annual shortfall of €600 million will be met.
