Vol. 370 No. 5

Written Answers. - Student Representatives on RTC's Boards of Management.

181.

asked the Minister for Education his views on whether a student's union should have representation in an observer capacity at board of management meetings of regional technical colleges; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

At present there are student representatives on the boards of management of Athlone, Cork, Sligo and Tralee regional technical colleges. In the case of Galway and Letterkenny regional technical colleges student representatives are permitted to attend as observers while in the case of Carlow, Waterford and Dundalk there is no provision for student representatives.

My Department would raise no objections if boards of management wish to grant observer status to student representatives.
