Although third-level tuition has been free in Ireland since 1997, for other student expenses most of themajor banks offer interest-free or cut-rate loans to students. There has been discussion on re-introducing fees, as recommended by the OECD, with deferred payment similar to the Australian system; i.e., a loan from the government repaid after graduation. The suggestion has however, been quite unpopular.
