Green Party accused of U-turn on fees [Independent.ie]
- Published: 18 August 2009

The country's student unions yesterday listed TDs it claimed were backing the return of college fees. But the Carlow-Kilkenny TD said her position on fees has not altered, and she was still opposed to their return.
"The Green Party policy is we are opposed to fees and I am opposed to fees," she told the Irish Independent.
