Monday's front pages: What the papers say

Kenneth Fox
Monday's front pages focus on a range of stories, from the path for Independent presidential hopefuls narrowing to student fees for college being reduced by €500.
The Irish Times reports the path for Independents to contest the presidential election will narrow considerably, as many councillors due to hear their candidacy pitches say endorsements are “highly unlikely”.
The Irish Examiner leads with third-level student fees being likely to be permanently reduced by up to €500 in next month’s budget.
The Echo reports that infrastructure delays in Cork are leading to houses not being able to be delivered.
