Education and Training Provision
Seanad Éireann — 2022-12-07
============================================================

Joe O'Brien (GP), Dublin Fingal

I genuinely believe the Senators have hit on a crucial issue. The Minister, Deputy Harris, is committed and has made clear that planning for current and future public sector skills needs is a priority for his Department. Officials will continue to engage across Departments to progress the important area of workforce planning. I agree with the Senators' point about the HEA. We could all do with a little more information about the plan for expressions of interest in respect of therapies. It is worth pushing.
