Vol. 340 No. 4

Written Answers. - County Galway Shellfish Research Centre.

480.

asked the Minister for Education if it is intended to close the Shellfish Research Centre of University College, Galway, at Carna, County Galway; and, if not, the funds allocated in the current Estimates for its continued operation and development.

I am not aware of any proposal to close the University College, Galway, Shellfish Laboratory at Carna, County Galway. This laboratory is jointly funded by the National Board for Science and Technology and the Higher Education Authority. I understand that the amount of the grant to be recommended by the Higher Education Authority in 1983 for this purpose from the total grant for University College, Galway has not been determined.
