Students from Maynooth,Trinty and memebers of the CFE in Ucd have occupied the junior finance minsters office in the department of finance. This action is in response to the lack of action by the goverment on student issues. The 3 demands are 1:A commitment not bring back in fees 2:A reversal of the 69% increase 3:An increase in grants The media has picked up the story and its all over. Latest word from inside the room is that the power has been cut off to the room and that the gardai special branch has arrived. They are in and secure.
