Micheál Martin (FF), Cork South-Central

I thank the Deputy for raising the issue but obviously these changes do not happen overnight. I am very familiar with Carlow College, St. Patrick's, which is an excellent facility. In my view it would serve the public interest well if it was incorporated into the South East Technological University. History shows that any facilities and land we acquire for educational purposes will be well used into the future, in terms of expansion and so forth. I know that the Minister is very committed to this and will work towards that end.
