Agricultural Colleges
Dail Éireann — 2020-12-08
============================================================

Matt Carthy (SF), Cavan-Monaghan

Deputy Funchion is unable to be here to take this question.
The Minister knows that if farming is to have a future, then we need to have a strong and robust agricultural education sector. Teagasc colleges and other such outlets provide an important output to train our next generation of farmers to meet the challenges they will face. They need to get the same support as all other students, however. How does the Minister plan to bring that about?
