Thank you so much, Minister. Students in my constituency who are studying at Ulster University in Coleraine have told me that affordable travel is a true lifeline.
Pardon me, that is my phone. Apologies. Have you had any engagement with students across the North on those matters and the detriment that would be caused to them by the loss of the discount?
