Vol. 301 No. 5

Written Answers. - Opticians Course.

461.

asked the Minister for Health the student intake for the opticians course at Kevin Street College, Dublin for each of the last four years; and if he is satisfied that the present level of student intake is sufficient to meet this country's requirements.

The student intake for the course in question for each of the last four years was as follows—

1973

11

1974

8

1975

17

1976

16

This level of intake seems to have been sufficient to maintain numbers. I am informed, however, that no course will commence this year because of difficulties in recruiting teaching staff and I am having the effect this might have on the country's requirements examined.
