YFG VP writes "It is with regret that we say a fond farewell to YFG National Secretary, Sarah Moore, who is leaving Irish shores for London, and a new career in nursing over there. While a great shock to us all on the Exec, we wish her the heartiest of best wishes in the new job, and in her new life in London.
Sarah who hails from Kilmore Quay, Co. Wexford, found her feet in the University of Limerick branch of YFG, and was elected to the YFG National Panel at the last national conference in Athlone in February 2009, with a resounding poll topping result. Universally popular, ever efficient, very hard working and always approachable, we will feel her absence.
Best of luck Sarah!"

WIT Young Fine Gael (YFG) is opposed to the current dispute between the Teacher’s Union of Ireland (TUI) and Waterford Institute of Technology (WIT) over the correction of exam payments. The ongoing dispute has resulted in students being adversely affected following yesterday’s vote by the TUI branch to engage in industrial action and continue to withhold results from students.
This vote for industrial action has now resulted in student’s Christmas exam results being delayed indefinitely with further exams not being set until the dispute is resolved. The dispute arose following a decision by college management to cut exam correction rates by 50% prior to it being agreed, the TUI instructed lecturers not to submit the results until the dispute was resolved.
