People who borrowed money from Government to finance their education had better start paying up.
This, apparently, is the message from the administrators of the long established Student Revolving Loan Fund.
The fund is taking legal action against a number of borrowers to recover its money.
Notices have started appearing in the Press warning defaulters that unless they honour their commitments within 14 to 28 days after publication of the notice, action would proceed against them.
