Parliament has defended the current accommodation cap set by the National Student Financial Aid Scheme (NSFAS). This stance comes despite intensifying pressure from student representatives. Ten Student Representative Councils (SRCs) are formally demanding the removal of the limit. These councils argue that the cap is unsustainable given the current housing crisis. Students are facing significant challenges in securing affordable and safe lodging. The opposition highlights a growing gap between funding and actual rental costs. Consequently, the conflict between legislative policy and student needs continues to escalate.
