(2) what compensatory financial assistance his Department provides to families where parents are in receipt of income support and whose child is aged 19 years or older and in full-time non-advanced education;
(3) what financial assistance his Department provides to young people aged 19 years or older who are living independently and are in full-time non-advanced education.
