Third Level Education
Dail Éireann — 2023-10-19
============================================================

Marc Ó Cathasaigh (GP), Waterford

I wish to ask a question about the plans to formulate new schools for veterinary medicine and pharmacy within our third level sector. The Minister will know I have a strong regional interest in this in that South East Technological University has strong bids for both courses. It is one of the things the university sector is very much looking forward to. There are a number of institutions, not just South East Technological University, SETU, looking at this. What is the progress in this regard, what is the timeline and when can we expect a decision to be made?
